Answer 2

I'm about your size, however I wear a 9 in shoes.

If i were you i'd get a 7.75, I think its the perfect size. 7.5's are to small and 8's are to big.

Thats just my opinion though.

Answer 3

it doesnt have anything to do with shoe size regardless of the other answers, i have the same size shoe as the dude above me who only skates 8" but i skate a 7.7 or even smaller sometimes. you will notice the first answer is also same shoe size and hieght and he uses 7.5 so you see shoe and height does not affect it at all.

ur deck width depends upon balance and the style of skateboarding you do, street decks normaly go 7.5- 8.0 and freestyle decks are like 7- 7.5 since u do freestyle and some simple street tricks i would go with one inbetween like a 7.4- 7.6 which ever is the most comfortable to you.

Answer 4

it all depends on your shoe size

for you i'd recommend anything from a 7.5 to a 7.8

cause i have a 10 1/2 shoe and i only skate 8''

cause i land tricks more cleaner and anything lower is too small for me

Answer 5

well if you can already do kickflips, then I think you should know...It's really personaly preference.

I got an 8'' and I think it is way too big..I'm your height and have 10 1/2 shoes...I think 7.75 is the biggest you should get and probably a 7.5 is best.
