We all know about the TSI god tier level decks, but I don't have 200+ to throw into a deck at this time. So what are your opinions on the best deck under 200? Ethics, flavors, addicts, etc. All that affordable jazz.

nah dont go with AO dude.

you can't go wrong with an ethic lindworm. i would suggest a flavor but they are impossible to get right now.
although, addict is gonna drop 2 new decks, and ethic and flavor are about to drop one each as well, all look awesome. not sure what the price on those will be though or if they are coming out any time soon.

but for real, thresholds are between $190-210 depending on which one you get, and they come with brake and headset, that is a way better deal. im not trying to sell you into the company i ride for, but that deck will last you at least 6-10 months longer than any other one you could get and you (if you are who i think you are, kevin tran??? are a bigger rider and) need a beefier deck. just ask your mom for the extra 10-20 bucks

I'm currently on a flavor right now, and I'm still... questioning its integrity and honesty. I've been riding ethics for the past year basically and everyone said that flavors feel just like them but better. They feel completely different imo. I'm just using this thread as foresight into the future basically. By the time I actually gather up enough money for a new deck (no disposable income ftw) I bet all the next gen decks will have dropped already so we'll see.

(And my name is Allen Tran, I do need big beefy decks, size 12 shoes are hard to fit on 20.5)

But I guess you want a bigger deck :/

I'm with ben on spending more to last longer, but i guess if money is literally an effort to scrape up... Still, all these decks people are suggesting are 30-40 bucks cheaper at most minus the District suggestion. If it's a minimal funds thing, I'd go District, but if it has to do with an irrelevant max price you set in your head, don't mind spending an extra 10 or 20. TSI makes very nice big boy decks.
