im 6'3" sz 13 190lbs ... im on a wide twin 159 for jumps/hardpack/small pow/some park ... i was on a wide setback 164 which was more of a mellow cruiser .... your size is not really a factor, how much do you weigh though? are you going to cruise or will you be spinning, riding in deep stuff or slow jibbing?

What do you weigh? What kind of riding do you do? And you should be looking for a wide board.

im between 150-160lbs. but i have size 13 feet so it neeeds to be wide to stop my toes catching when im on my toe edge.

im totally new to boarding so i was just looking to be cruzing around on the groomed stuff but eventually moving to powder.

what you guys rekon i need?

have u found one yet??

you need like a setback 156, if your totally new get an entry level board under $400, goto your local shop and talk to them too, if your trying to buy online and want us to pick it out for you, give us a price range and the type of design you like, and what brands you feel stronger about

hey thanks guys
found a board, went for a 09 burton cruzer 159 twin wide.
got it brand new with burton freestyle bindings for $350 canadian.
not a bad price!
did a load of research into it and found out it was a good beginner to intermediate board. and seeing as im goning to be living on the mountain and boarding most days i thought it wise to get a board that i wont outperform too quickly.
what you guys reakon?
