Ok, so I've decided that I want to get into snowboarding more and I want to get my own equipment. Basically I'm looking for a board that can do it all, carve, take into the terrain park, maybe some half pipe, whatever. Something with a nice flex and something that will last. I'm about 157lbs. and I'm 5'9" tall but I'm still 13 so I'm still growing. I want to get a board that will last me atleast like two seasons so something that won't get too small or break is good. I also have size 11.5 feet which are still growing as well so I don't know if I need a wide board or not. I know my best bet is to go to a shop to try things out and such but I'm hoping I could get some help and suggestions here first.

Hope you can help,
Ian
