Guys I need some help choosing some gear. I'm going to buy a new board and bindings, I don't have the money to buy a board just for myself so I will split the cost with my brother and we will share the board, we also don´t get to ride all that much to justify buying a board each.

As you probably can tell we are not experienced riders either but we want to progress, so far we´ve been using a really old long, narrow board and we need something better

Here are my questions, Is sharing a board a terrible idea? or we should be OK at least for a couple of years

If it is OK, should we focus more on getting a relatively good board and just ok boots/bindings, or the other way arround put more money on the boots and less on the board.

And regarding the boots, are those entry level bindings that work for a series of shoe numbers firm enough? Because sadly we don´t have the same shoe number.

So far I,ve been looking at the 2012/2011 LF watson hybrid, or something more basic like the ronix vault with divides.

Any info is will be apreciated
