What would you do? - Snowboarding Forum

I'm 5'7, 140. I have three boards:162, 155, 148. One is obviously too big. The other two are a Burton Clash (155) thats sick. Then the other is a Palmer Jade. I'm wondering which one I'd be better off with. I don't really wanna ride a girls board and it gets the speed wobbles like a mofo. I ride mostly trails but I like to hit shoots and stuff but nothing too big. I'd consider myself on the lower side of intermediate. I used to be decently good but I took 4 years off. What board would you ride if you were me?

Thanks guys! Looks like I'm going with the 155.

You already knew the answer to your question before you asked it. The 162 is big for you, the 148 is a girls board, and the 155 seems to be right up your alley. Don't know what you wanted anyone to say?

I'd ride the girls board, try to set a new trend. Sell the other two boards to buy hallucinogens.
