Both should be fine boards for you. Are you limited to just those two or are there others that are available?

Those two are the one I'm down do but shopping online so open to ideas my price range $300 to $400 for board

Both are suitable boards but 155 is way too small for 95KG. You should look into at least 160.

at 95 kg a slightly longer board would be ideal. That's my approximate weight and I ride a 58 as my everyday board. A 55 would still work fine, but not be ideal in powder.

What are your other board options? I'm assuming your using an online shop that ships to Australia?

I have a K2 raygun and it's definitely a fun board. If you can still find last year's model, it'll probably be really cheap too. It comes in a 159 which I think would suit you well. Good luck!
