Board Length suggestions - Snowboarding Forum

ZeeJayDubs · 02-19-2012, 07:58 PM

I currently ride a LTD 163W and I love it. I like having a huge board for plowing through powder and getting speed.
I definitely need a new board though, I've ridden this one too hard over the last 6 years or so.
I was wondering what size boards you guys would suggest.
I'm 5'10", 180, and wear size 12 boots, and I definitely need the wide board for my boots.
I was thinking about trying to find like a 165W or a 168W, is that too long of a board?
Should I stick around the low 160's or what?
For my style of riding, I like spending my time in powder and in the trees, and going off a few jumps now and then.
