im 175 cm and 67 kg wat size board shud i get and i am size 8 boots wat width
then thats bad cus you don’t want toe drag
No, That is the Length of the board. Average is about 156 or so. The width is 26CM if Wide and 24/25 if regular or so
@daniej1 : Where can you get these disks? and does it effect your riding?
yes it will affect your carving cause your toe might get caught when your carving
Is the width of my board where it says “156″ because I have a Redline 156 Option and I where size 13 shoe and my foot hangs over the board by like an inch or two will the effect carving or anything?
@daniej1
dwarf is fat and gay
your snowboard size depends on your weight, not your length, and also on what type of riding you do
also if your feet are to big for your board you can get disks that raise your bindings so you don’t get toe/heel drag as fast
@cjacki32 only you can know if its too big for you!!!
i have a problem
my board is 24,4 wide and i have size 9,5 boots
is that good?
‘cuz my toes are hanging about 3 cm off the edge
yes it is i am 5’7 and my board is 153cm
think so Im 5’9 and 157 is recommended for me
@cjacki32
its a personal preference, i personally would want it a bit smaller it i was 5’5
thanks…
@cjacki32 your good to go
@spitem1 its better for park, or things like that, atleast thats what ive told… ;P
i got a board as a gift its 158cm. im 5’5 and 150 pound is my board too big for me?
mine is 163cm and its up to me nose….thats not to tall is it?….i can carve easily though….
im size 12.5 and i dont use a wide board and i do just fine..fago
Hes not completely wrong, but snowboards sizing is determined BY YOUR WEIGHT. check sizing charts on snowboard decks. No height factor involved
It’s easier if it’s shorter really.
im also goofy on skateboard(i cant skate really well:p)but im regular on snowboard(not really good at that either)
what whould happen if your board is 1-2 inches below your chin?
150 might be a good size for your height.
must suck if your ambidextris, smack!
