I'm 6'4'' 205 lbs with size 12 boots. I mostly freeride, hitting off-piste/trees whenever the snow allows and mostly looking for natural jumps, jibs and drops.

I ride a 161.5 T-Rice for everything but I am looking to pick up another board that will float better for the deeper days. I'm not really looking for pure powderboard for Deep BC type riding, really just a resort powderboard that will allow me to still have fun hitting the natural terrain but give me better float and less leg burn than my T-Rice.

Thoughts on the 164 Charlie Slasher for this purpose? It retails for pretty cheap and I may also buy a 2011 on CR for even less.
