I demo'd that board last year... it was a fun board to ride... at $299 it seems like a great deal... but at 100kg it would be pretty small to learn on... and might be a bad deal for you.

hey caneman,

if it is called the dragon S, then it is a 2003 and not a 2004. the '04 boards come in three sizes of which a 135 X 37 is one.

i have ridden the '03 dragon L and would think that one a good board for you but, not the dragon S. the S needs a lot of wind to get moving and is going to be very unforgiving of mistakes.
