What Size Park Board? - Snowboarding Forum

spjuenger · 02-28-2011, 10:15 AM

I'm going to buy a park board, but I'm not sure what size I should get. I'm 5'10 210 lbs. I ride a 2011 Custom 160, but I'm looking for something a little more playful for the park. I'm set on the Burton Hero, but should I get a 155 or 158?

If it was me I'd go 155.

Id go 155 for easier manuevering(sp?). Im recomded to use a 155 but opted for the 152 for park. Your like 157 range so 155 is good.

Thanks guys, I've been leaning toward 155, but I'm new to park riding.

I demoed the Hero in a 158 and liked it a lot but if I was going to buy it I'd probably step down to the 155. I'm 6' and 195 lbs.
