Burton Joystick board sizing - Snowboarding Forum

ginja-ninja · 09-19-2012, 10:55 AM

Well as the name suggests I'm looking for some help with sizing a new board up. I haven't boarded in about 7 years, been living in Texas, but am currently in Korea and there are some places here to go, also I will be in Alaska in about 6 months. I'm 6'3 and roughly 205-210 lbs and a boot size of a 12. The 2 sizes I'm trying to choose between are the 159W and the 163W. The 159 has a 259 waist width and the 163 has a 261. After reviews and a few hours going through boards I'm pretty stuck on this board, just not sure which size. I would appreciate any help, thanks!
