Flow era sizing question? - Snowboarding Forum

Kylo · 03-17-2011, 03:30 PM

Hey, I finally found a board that I like and will use for next season in park and a little all mountain. The thing is, right now I am 120 pounds and 5'6" and I'll still be growing from now until then which is I'd say about 10 months away. I also have a 10 boot size atm and it's still growing obviously. Here's the decision, a 149 or 152?

I have a 152 2011 era. Im 5'10" 120 size 10 boot. Board is just right, easy to spin, flex is nice. I think if you see yourself growing 3+ inches then go with 152 but 149 would also be fine i think. So wich ever u want.

Hi Kylo,

The 152 will be the better choice. It is 25 cm at the waist and 26 at the center inserts. Your size 10 feet are 28 cm so you have 1 cm of barefoot overhang (toe and heel) at straight angles. That is fine, but it is getting close...and you are growing. You would not want to go any smaller.

The ERA is an awesome board!
