2 Cents - Snowboarding Forum

Hi, I just wanted some feedback on whether I should keep my 2011 Forum Conflict 157cm I got last year. I am 6'0 about 175-180 lbs. Do you think it is too small for my size or should I go bigger? If I went bigger it would only be to a 160-161 so I'm wondering if it would even be worth it. I might just be tripping but it feels a little small. What do you think?
Thanks!

Do is feel too small for you?

It's all personal preference on whether a board is too long or not. Is it unstable at high speeds?

I mostly freeride.. I have been riding a 157 for years. I got this board for a great price last year and couldnt pass it up even though I was originally shopping for a 160. It's kind of erked me since I've never ridden anything bigger and was wondering if it would make much difference for powder. Its a little neurotic but the feedback helps. Thanks!
