I have been looking at the Sector Nine boards and I think I have these two narrowed down.

http://www.sector9.com/2006/

For Josh I wanted something small and maneuverable that would be easy for him to handle. There is a skate park about an hour from where we live but, I think he will most likely be doing street tricks rather than ramps/vert stuff. A Mini seemed perfect for him to start out on.

For myself I am having a bit harder of a time chosing. I want a cruiser as I don't think these old bones can take a lot of tricks but I would like to be able to do a few simpler tricks with him. There don't seem to be a lot of boards suited to both tasks??? I am leaning towards the Cosmic 1??? I also like the looks of the longer Cosmic 2 but I figured the shorter board would be a better compromise.

I would appreciate your thoughts/suggestions on my choices..
