I am riding a 2002 Premier 141 and considering upgrading to a 2006 Parks 136 or Premier 141. leaning towards the Parks but just curious if the 136 is long enough for a guy who weighs 210 lbs. Thoughts? Also differences in the boards from those who have ridden them would be helpful. Thanks

ive got the parks 140. i weigh 205. any less then 140 and i would question it. i love my board and couldnt wish for anything more. if you are used to a 141 i would stick around there. dont go changing something you know works. just my thoughts.

yup. i also ride a Parks 140. i'm about 185, so i could probably get away without much of a problem with a 136, but i felt more solid on the 140. I'd go with the 140 if i were you, if you were looking at a parks. The ride shouldnt change much between your premier and the parks, that depends on whether you have the center fin still on the premier. the parks rides REALLY loose, and i love it. i have never ridden a board that bucks you like that abrupt 3-stage. i absolutely love it. it might take some gettin used to, but i think you'll love that board.

I ride the parks 136 and Im 210, but I really like small boards. IMO the Parks will be <b>WAY</b> too small for you unless you don't mind a small board.

The Parks is a great board, not very forgiving but it had tremendous pop.
