i have choice between getting a

T-rice 153 or a 157 banana magic.

The types of riding i do, charge groomers, some flat land tricks (spins and butters), muck around with friends and hit some medium sized jumps at the park, i ride a lot of ice in australia, but at the end of the year i usually go somewhere overseas where there is quite a bit of powder and do a lot of powder riding there.

im 6'0 and 180 pounds.

Which board should i get?

The T. Rice 153. The Banana is a powder board. The T. Rice is a freeride board.

Edit: I would go bigger on the T. Rice though. At least a 155. I ride 154 for park and I'm thirty pounds lighter than you.

153 T. Rice much too small for you and the riding described. Even the 157 Magic might be too small.
