Need help! so i just got a 153 board and im 5'11 and weigh 200 pounds will i be ok???

Answer 1

Ok going by your weight and height for an All mountain board go around a 160 for a freeride board around a 163 and for a freestyle board around a 157. If you wanted a jib type freestyle board id recommend around a 154 so if the board you have is a jib board you will probably be ok, but for any other type of riding it wont be ideal, Good Luck.

Answer 2

It really depends, but i would say yes... bassically if you put the board beside you it should be between your chin and nose.  

The size of board also depends on your experience/ what you want to do...

if you are starting out (which i assume you are by the question) you want a smaller more flexable board.

If you ride big mountain powder, bigger/stiff is better

park riding - smaller more flex

its all about your preferance really...
