So, what traits do you like in a good course board? What are the variables you consider?

Racing looks like a lot of fun. Any tips/thraeds/websites to point me to on how to get in to it? I'm not super competitive, but think it'd be a good time. Anyone out there want to teach a youngun racing?

I would talk to Kent, Josh, Garry, Patrick or Gebi about this. They are all into it and I recall have regular rides during the Shake-A-Leg evening race series down in Coconut Grove. There are threads on here about board types but all pretty dated. I think Cabrinha is putting out a production board for course racing. I believe it is the one Damo used at the World competition recently. It should be available through the ASM stores in Miami also you could get in touch with some of the guys there about course racing.
