Freestyle board questions

I just ordered a 159w board (26.2 waist width) for freestyle

I'm 6'0 190 lbs 11.5 US MEN boot size riding duck stance (15/15)

Is this a good size? or should I try to go lower for parks/tricks.

that sounds about right..u can also go smaller to a 57 depending on the type of tricks

Cool, thanks a lot. My board is already on its way and its a 159 with a soft flex. Its also regular camber but board description says its made for park/rail riding so we'll see how it turns out. Got it for low 100s (the board is Rome Machine) mixed with my gift card, so its gonna be my thrash board till next season.
