hey im 6'2 170lbs intermediate rider with 11.5 shoe size i currently have a 162 looking at a couple boards, want a smaller board so i can maneuver better so just wondering what size to get im more of a freestyle rider 

[sierrasnowboard]

@carlsondillon - You could go with a board that is as short as a 155cm or so. Just make sure the waist width is 255mm to 260mm. The Rome Machine might be a good fit.

I'm 5'9 and about 140 I love to snowboard and looking for one to get over the summer. My boot size is 9. I ride mostly mtn. What would be a good board for me

[sierrasnowboard]

@JoshuanCali - Check out the Sierra Reverse Crew in a 155.

HIya. I'm 6 foot (female) beginner, boot size is a 10. Don't know how much I weight because I have not jumped on a scale in 6 months. Last time I looked I was 95 kilo but I have lost a dress size since then (so I guess I'm between 85 and 90 kilo's now).

I free ride and looking at the M3 Escape 150cm but worried it may be to short. I am learning so that eventually I will be able to go back country boarding. No interest in jumping around.

[sierrasnowboard]

@aussielung - That would be a bit too short. You want a board around a 156cm with a 250mm waist width. For Back Country Riding you could even get a board that is a bit longer.

@Trainboy1EJR Did you ever turn or try to stop? Haha your gonna catch your foot so much.You need a wider board.

I am 6'1", 90KG and wear a size 13 shoe with an athletic build. What is the smallest board I could ride? I would like to be able to manouver better/freestyle.

I'm 5'4", 135 lbs, & I just picked up a 148cm to ride park.

when I didn't know anything about sizes, I was riding all mountain with a 155 cm lol and surprisingly I was still hitting rails, boxes, and jumps but was kinda difficult.

[Trainboy1EJR]

ha ha ha! i am a 6'5" 210lb noob with a 130cm board... am i an idiot? i was actually doing better than most of the other snowboarders in my town. i actually went farther than everyone else. also, my shoes go an inch and a half over the board on both sides.

[3picminetime]

honestly guys hes not saying wat you need to get hes also saying that wat ever suits your type like for me! im 13 and i have a 130 inch burton hero. i like freestyle so a shorter board is better for me!

[taudochabot]

My friend is 6 foot 4 and 140 pounds. and his boot size is 10.5 what board size would you recommend?

[phycopimp123]

hey im about 5 ft and like 135pounds im 12 yrs old so im still gonna grow im intermediate/begginner and i want a whole mt board my snowboot size is 10 wat would be a good board for me

[BIGeyMAC]

what factor about me determines how long the board should be? im 5'11, 145 lbs, size 12 boot, im looking into getting a never summer evo. but idk what size it shud be other than a 260 width

[TheKarolism]

Hey Sierra i'm 5'9 154 pounds i just picked up a Travis rice pro board in a 153 it sits right under my chin. The sizing chart says that the 153 is for riders 100+ the next step up would be 157 its says its for riders 120+. I was just wondering if i made the right choice because i am more or a free-rider but i wanted to focus on learning my spins this season but i still would like to maintain good stability at high speeds. i should mention that the board has a flex rating of a 7.

153 or 157?

[nblachura]

So, I'm looking to start snowboarding, the one i'm looking at 149cm for freestyle. I'm 5'3 and 160ish, Would that be a good size? I looked at three different charts and got from 147 to 150 to I got confised.
