Hi guys, <BR>I'm trying to figure out what size of board would be best for me. I'm buying a 2003 LF Substance. I'm 5'11" , 185 pounds. I would like to read pros and cons about each board size. Unfortunately I can't demo in my area. Thanks for your help !

u should probably go with the 141. it will be a nicer ride and sofetr landings.

141: pro: more stable, beter landings, beter pop <BR> con: heavier, more swing weight <BR> <BR>136: pro: less swing weight, lighter <BR> con: less stable, harder to land

141: Bigger is better! Todays boards are not big enough for most people. My bet is they will get wider and slightly longer in the next few years. Bigger = more pop and softer landings and more rail to dig in and carve hard.

Guys, thanks a lot for your input. I ended up ordering a 141. The choice was quite clear with all your help. <BR>Ride on !!!

I just bought the same board for me. I:'m 6' 170. Where did you pick one up and what did you pay?

Mark, I bought it on <a href="http://www.closeoutdude.com" target="_blank">www.closeoutdude.com</a> <BR>250$ USD + shipping. Expensive but still a lot less than what I would have paid here ! How about you ?

bigger is harder to maneuver though <BR>i have a 136 substance and love it, id rather have less swing weight for 540s and flips. if you are more into landing in the flats i would go with a 141 for the landings

Won an ebay auction for $202.50 + 25 shipping. Can't wait to get her and a pair of alpha's for a phat ride!

nice deal mark, i got my 2003 136 substance from seedickride for $180 used but in perfect condition

Goin ridin tomorrow, too bad overnight would cost me like $200
