    bigger board provides better stability when you straight line it... also allows you to float above the powder better with less leg strain from having to lean back.

    bigger board is also less forgiving and come up out of no where and bite you... quick catch of an edge and and you body slammed to the ground. you also may find a bigger board a bit harder to turn at first but you'll adjust quick.

    My 169 is strictly an early season rock board so i can go anywhere without worrying about a core shot to good deck... which currently is a Forum Elite 165, have Forum Team 164 in my reserve as well.
