I'm about to go skiing, well?

Question

snowboarding and I'm curious about the # for the different boards like 152 any help?

Answer 1

The 152 designation just refers to the number of centimeters.

These two Websites will answer all your questions about what type and size of board you should be using.

Your question mentions both skiing and boarding but these are boarding sites.

but...

Rider Height : As a "quick and dirty" rule of thumb you can use your height to decide your board's length. For freestyle boards, the top of the board should be between your collar bone and mouth. For freeride boards, the top should be between your chin and nose.

Answer 2

the length of the board in cm(centimeters)
