Im Going to Buy a 2009 Rome artifact?

Question

I'm 5-8 5-9 I weigh about 140 and I'm thinking of getting the 150 or 153?

but I'm not shore which would be better to get

Answer 1

Since you are looking at a freestyle / jib board, I assume you like to ride almost exclusively freestyle / park. Your weight is in the acceptable range for either size, so I would use a snowboard size calculator to get a rough idea of the right size:

Beginner says 153 and intermediate says 155 for your size, and since you might be growing or gaining a little weight this season I would say the 153 is perfect.

Good Luck

Answer 2

i would skip the embarrassment and not buy an artifact. It's the worlds most overrated board.

Answer 3

Well since your looking at a park only board I would go with a 150. It doesn't matter much that your growing unless next year you will be riding the same board. I am 125 lbs and 5 foot 5 and I ride a 148 in the park.

and I really dont think you are to big for a 150. Look at jp walker, hes probaly around 6 foot and atleast 150 lbs and hes riding  148.

you would be fine on the 150
