Hey guys so I found a great deal for a 2012 rome artifact rocker for 185$ new. I'm gonna get it but I'm wondering what size I should get. I am getting into freestyle riding. I am 5 foot 7 and 120lbs. I wear a size 10.5 shoe but at the moment I'm wearing a size 9 boot but that will probably go up to 9.5 or 10 next year. So what size board should I get? Does it need be wide or the regular one? And also what bindings should I get? I'm looking for a price around 150$ or less. And what size binding do I need? Please answer guys. The deal isn't gonna last forever. Thanks.

If you want room to grow, go with the 152 range, but if you are looking at getting a new stick every year, get the 150 and get a bigger one as you need. personally when i am riding freestyle i go with a much shorter board for the fun of hucking it around....i ride a 161 in pow. 158 in chop and a 153 for freestyle.

for 185 if you hate it, sell it for 150 and try again!

Wow calm down no one likes to be told they have to do something by a total newbie. If your boots have shrink tech you are fine hell even with out that you will be fine in a duck stance. What are you looking to get out of your board? Nothing wrong with burton cartels or malts, I personally love the now ipo and salomon holograms from this year. If you can pick up a ride delta or k2 formula used those are also great.
