165 or 169 question
Not sure how to reply within a post so ill just post here.....
The general rule of thumb is to get a board that come up between your chin and your collar bone, shorter boards are usually more for freestyle (tricks and such) because of better control. Just get one in the middle probally 165....hope this helps... louie |
