We got a ChessCentral triple weighted, double foldable set off Amazon... http://www.amazon.com/School-Deluxe-Triple-Weighted-Pieces-Folding/dp/B004YP1CB8/ Shipping was cheaper when we got it. Other version have free/Prime shipping now. DS doesn't play tournaments and doesn't need ultra-portable. We found the rollable, silicone, mousepad, etc boards to all be wrinkly, rough, or otherwise bothersome. The foldable vinyl boards were the best option. After a year or so it matters much less. I think any of the quality boards would work fine now, but starting out a completely flat, smooth board with quality pieces was a huge plus.
