In my search for a freeride board, I've come across these locally.

Frankly, the Avantride is by all accounts is an awesome board, and probably makes the most sense to get.

The Rainbow remains a mystery - I've found almost no references to boards made by them, and the person has yet to send me pictures.

The redeeming features of the Rainbow is that is rather closer to go get, and slightly cheaper as well as come with some sails (which might well be junk).

I know I should probably go with the Avantride, but I'm curious about this mystery Rainbow board. Anyone?

I'm 140lbs, incidentally.

Wow Mr Chocky, if that's a Rainbow Rider Sailboard from the 80s,
(9'10" and 120 ltrs sounds like an 80s board), I doubt you'll be very
happy with it. Other wise, I'll be interested to know what kind of board it is.
