Was looking at a 151 NS SL, i'm 5'11 175-180 lbs, size 9.5 boot
is a 151 going to be too small for me?

Thats prob gonna be to small for you. I'm 5.9 ~155lbs with a 9.5 and have gone with 155 for my NS's (SL, Heritage, Cobra).

Depending on how and where you ride... I would say 158 (maybe 155 park/freestyle).

How about a 153 SL?

I'm at 180, you want more in the 155 for packed/groomed, 158-60 for some powder and 160-64 in the deep poo....at least those are my board sizes in the quiver for conditions around here.
