Question

Im 5'6 and about 140 pounds i like freestyle snowboarding , what length board would be best?

Answer 1

i'm 5'6 125 pounds and ride a 148.

it'll depend on whether you want a short board to really whip it around or not. you could deff. go for a 148 but you could even go to a 151/152.

if your grabbin a board, right now would be the best time to do it since a lot of places lower their prices during the offseason to make room for the new stuff.

Answer 2

It also depends on your boot size and your skill level. Try this calculator for size:

Look at K2, Rome, Forum, Lib Tech, Gnu

Good Luck

Answer 3

It is mostly personal pereference. I'm 5'6 130 lbs and I actually like riding 145cm and 147cm for park. I'd say 148cm if you like the short freestyle size. If you are one of those guys who like longer boards for freestyle just go with your all mountain size (probably a 152 or 154?).
