    I'm 6'4, 215 and ride a 158... granted I bought it several years ago when I was about 6'/160.

    I think it's time for a new board.

    Best trip ever :) we rode jet skis about an hour before we left. The water was so choppy I committed to a normal low speed turn and it just tossed me and my girlfriend off, it almost flipped the ski over, haha.

    Are you saying I could go faster on a longer board?!?

    It's funny that you say that... I don't ride park at all, and like to go as fast as I can... My girlfriend says I only turn to avoid trees and children.

    I've needed a new board for awhile. Having a board that small for my size, it gets VERY squirrelly at speed, but it does have some significant advantages at low speeds, like being able to butter/spin/ride switch.

    two seasons ago was soo epic. I got to ride till feb, then i broke my collar bone at heavenly after an idiot going to slow cut in front of me. If you wanna haul ass its almost not even worth it to go on the weekends to heavenly/sierra/northstar. For weekend's i try to stick to kirkwood. Weekdays i'll jam up to sierra or heavenly.

    Have fun man, sounds like you got a proper weekend planned for your lady.

    There is a lot of factors with selecting the proper board I just happened to get a total steal with the current board $200 board bindings and boots all brand new when I bought them.

    The weekend was awesome, hell I might just post up a video of us jet skiing later :) Tahoe is fantastic, two seasons ago was killer I had the time of my life up in the mountains. This season I AM going back up the very month the snow hits. It was still very nice out there as dry as it was out there. I got trashed at the cabo Wabo joint while watching all the football games.

    It should definitely be bud. I heard last season was slightly disappointing.
