Board Size Question - Snowboarding Forum

eastCOASTkills · 09-27-2009, 08:57 PM

Hey i'm deciding between a few boards on the 2010 Rome line based on my weight. I'm 5'6" and i weigh 125 and i'm trying real hard to pack on some more pounds but its difficult. anyways i want a park board and i think the artifact 1985 in a 147 would be nice my only concern is the noodle factor. the postermania in a 147 looks nice too but seems a little two stiff, and the graft in a 149 seems too big for me for a park board. help would be greatly appreciated and yes, i used the search bar and didnt get a solid answer for those who will tell me to do that.

the 47 would be better for you, especially in the park.

in the artifact 1985?

Yeah, the 1985. Given you weigh 125lbs and you said it's really hard for you to gain weight, this board won't be that much of a noodle for you.
