i wouldnt go any bigger than a 147. as a park rider less board to handle is going to allow you to be looser. i have a ride machete which is a flat rocker and more on the buttery side. but im mostly back country and tree rider (always down for a good park run tho) home mountain is vail/ beaver creek so im dealing with a lot more powder than u. btw im 6'3" riding a 156

I've got my 147 which is fine

Smaller boards are just more fun to dick around on! Plus a board with a flex rating of 1 would be a blast!

riding tiny boards makes spins look soooo bad. Ride a board that wont look goofy as fuck imo.

I really just want a list of boards with a flex of 1 and some banana tech

I ride in MN, 100% park, groomed/ice

I have the 2010 Box scratcher E 147

I'm 5'7" 145#, The board would reach my collar bone

Price is not an issue

Google doesn't have a list



i think the lib box scratcher is really the only mens board in a 145, unless you look into kids or womens boards or like a rossignol mini hahah.
im about the same size as you, 5'9 @ 147 lbs and i just bought a 147 capita horrorscope fk. i rode a 152 cm skate banana the last two seaons and that thing was a blast.
why do you want to downsize/ride a smaller board? youre not really gaining much by shaving 2cm off the size

I'm in the 303/720 from time to time bro.

Don't ski, but would be down for some shred!

Yeah, seems like a few people don't understand that.

I'm more concerned about the flex rating of 1.
