need some advice - Snowboarding Forum

i'm looking to purchase a board for the first time. i've rented a board before and that was ok, but i want to own my own. i would just be mountain riding for the most part and maybe a tad bit of park. i'm 5' 10", 147 lbs, with a size 11 boot. the board i'm looking to buy right now is a Rossignol Circuit 155. I think that is the right size for what i'm doing. i have a price limit of $220 for a board.

is this a good board? is there a better board for the money? is the size right?

i'm also looking at buying Burton Freestyle bindings and DC phase boots. i have a $100 budget for bindings and $110 budget for boots. is there something better or is it all personal preference?
