I think a 158 would be too big for him. I am 5'9 and my 151 skate banana comes up right below my chin. He wants freestyle AND park so a board right between shorter - for park ... and longer - for shredding .... Comes out that the board should be right between his chin and his nose, where the "correct" size of the board is measure.

Measure yourself and that's the board size u should get.
