so I'm set on getting a lib tech skate banana as soon as I can, but would a 152 be big for my size? I'm 122lbs and 5'9 and still growing by the time I'm done growing I should be 6'2 and hopefully I'll get to 140lbs. Also where can I buy a skate banana from this year? I can't find any sites that still have them in stock.

You better hope you weigh a lot more at 6'2" than 140lbs or a strong gust of wind is going to take you into the next state.

LOL, no kidding. I'm in good shape, and I'm 6'2" 200lbs

lol yea i'm a total stick I'm always being told i have chicken legs and need to eat more, but i eat a good amount for a 14 year old and am acutally losing weight at the start of the school year i was 129 and 5'7 and now 5'9 and 122 its kinda weird, but does a skate banana compare to the flex of a jeenyus eddie wall? cuz i just had mine stolen and i loved that board

with anything with banana rocker you can go smaller. so i would say go with a 149 if you plan on being in the park.

5'9" and 122lbs! Dude, you need to eat. You must be super skinny.

I'm sure every girl you meet is jealous of you.

I'm 5'10 and 165 pounds...

And I'd say go shorter with the Banana...if they make em shorter anyways.

I'm 6'4" and I weigh 165-170lbs. Makes board sizing a bit strange.
