If you appeal to every audience, you'll be in way over your head. Personally, I require a board at least 43" long and zero flex. Flex adds comfort, sure, but removes control. As for concavity, I prefer none. A flat deck is exactly what I had shaped for myself. My girlfriend is painting the top with pokemon. For reals.
Hardware, I have purchased Original S10 trucks, Centrax neon pink 77mm 75a wheels and Bilt-in self-aligning bearings. This is the ideal hill carving board. No speed wobble, incredible grip with controllable skidablility. Its cumbersome, but no one else's board setup is going to compare.
