Hello I need help with my board size. I have been riding a Burton Clash 147cm for the last 2 years. I plan to buy a Rome Graft or Artifact. I just need help decideding if I should go up in size or stay the same. I am 5'7" 135 lbs so would I be ok going with a 149 Graft?

If you are having problems with your 147 getting squirrely when you go faster, or you think you are going to grow than it's safe to say you can go up a size or two.

...but if you are really comfortable on a 147, it gets you everywhere on the mountain you want to ride and does what you want it to do than just get another 147.

Don't fix something that isn't broken, right?

I'd bump up to the 149 for sure or even the 151.
