Hows it goin? I went snowboarding last year and really enjoyed it. This upcoming season i want to actually get my own board and i was wondering if you guys could help me out. I'm 6'2 and 160 lbs and my boot size is 11. Im planning on more of a freestyle board and trying to get the best board for my money. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

I'm 5'11" 180lbs and I ride an 161.5 M3 discord, in fact it was the first board I ever bought. It was a little rough at first but I sure am glad I didn't buy a board that will fit in my glovebox because 3 seasons later that M3 is perfect. If you plan on going regularily you will get used to it. It's too hard to go fast with one of them little child size boards lol, just kidding I also have a 158. I also do mostly freeriding and I'd be willing to bet that if I liked spending any time in the park I'd probably be on a nice soft 155 or something like that.
