i've heard a lot of great things about this board.....i've heard it runs great in the park, and has awesome flex.the only thing i'm concerned about is if it will be up to potential on the jumps.like, is the flex too soft for jumps?or can it hold up on them?thanks!!!

As soon as you start going to the park and playing around on features your gonna be stressing your board. Any ride you have is susceptible to damage when you apply those conditions.

l doubt you will have any problems, the Manual is a freestyle jib board meant to take abuse. So unless your exceedingly rough with the thing, should be smooth sailing.
