  1. It all depends what your riding style is.

    If you like to do tricks, a board that comes up to your chin is probably a good height, but if you prefer to go hard and fast, a longer board might be better for you.

    I find that my board is just right for me, I think very much longer would use a lot more effort in carving. It comes up to my bottom lip.


  2. board length doesn't have much to do with your height! don't listen to people telling you it should come to your nose or chin, it's about your weight and your riding style/preference. Some boards are stiffer than others of the same length. check the specs on whatever board you're looking at and make sure your weight falls in the range they have for it. i'm 6'0", 175 lb and i just bought a 162 (but i'm not so into freestyle). good luck!

  3. Well, my opinion is that you should get a board that is about between your lower chin and your nose.  I'm 5' 6 and I shred a Gnu Street 149. Thats just below my chin

  4. when you go to the shop to buy the snowbard, the guy will measure ur heigh. its depends on your height, weight,etc.

  5. 145

  6. you should get a bored... probably get a bored that is about the size of you if it a litte lower or higher its ok but aroud the vicinity area of your head

  7. I heard that the top of the board is supposed to go to your eyebrows or the middle of your forehead
