If you want to stick with Hyperlite, there are a few options. The Murray board is pretty popular and it can be paired with the Team boots for a good price. Same goes for the Clash and B-side. If you want a current pro model, I would recommend the Franchise (my personal favorite) or the Marek. Anything is going to be a major upgrade over your 10 year old deck. The Marek is pretty aggressive but still toned down over previous years, at heart it is an edgy and poppy shape. The Franchise is a little more forgiving, carries good speed and IMO has great pop for a continuous shape. The System boots are awesome, but not essential. The Teams are good boots but the System gives you an added level of support and control.
