im new to snowboardingand was wodering if this will b 2 hard to function on

im asking for ur advice 2 send it bak or keep it

Answer 1

The manufacturer sets the specs for each board, it's not just a general rage for a length of board.  Google the brand, find the model and then see what it's specs are.

It's possible you might outweigh the board, I have a 148 and it's good for people up to 155lbs.  Then again it's a soft board, if yours is stiffer it might have a higher range.

Answer 2

This is about the right size for a freestyle board, maybe a little short for a freeride / all mountain board - you didn't say what kind of riding you do or what kind of board it is. Check this site:
