the one i have now is a Ride board, its like 160 cm and way too tiny, like often i feel like if im going to fast i cant control my board.


Height: 6'4
Weight: 240
Boot size: 13
Gender: Male
Riding Style: freeride/freestyle

According to this i need a board size of 168 cm

I was only really freeride or w.e before (no parks), but this year plan on going in the park more and still regular slopes.



I wanna buy through trusnow because they are a badass site and last years stuff is on sale. Just need board/bindings, what you guys recomend

thinking the reverse crew, highest size is 162 cm, is that fine :S ?

Thinking a 1x10 with some wax outa get you to the bottom of the mountain pretty good

LMK

heres a better site imo.

linked you to the 168+ boards


if you dont like any of them

try the 164-167.5

should be fine



also since you have side 13 i would get a wide board

Gotta disagree on the house...There customer service is terrible, there prices are always some of the highest.

I would stick with trusnow I ordered from there several times and always have good service.

The reverse crew is a nice board, also size charts arent the bottom line.. if you are comfortable on a smaller board don't worry about it.

I have a friend that is according to size charts to ride a 154-156 but rides a 148 and hates anything bigger. Board size is preference.



Also agree with burton_clash you will probably need a wide board depending on what you get.

i never had problems with the house lol

I've never had problems with the house either.

and I'd love to see some of these sites that are cheaper then the house.

have you heard of http://www.whiskeymilitia.com/
?

thats where i buy all my boarding stuff.

they only sell 1 thing at a time(for 30 mins at a time per item) so they just buy everything super wholesale and its always 50%+ off.

i just got 2 new boards, a 350$ board for 160 and a 400$ omatic celebrity for 180.

just waitin on boots/bindings to get put up :]
