I just bought an 06' LF Watson 134. Haven't had the chance to take it out to the water yet but I demoed a 138 and loved it. Im 5'8" and weigh 160. Think this board will be too small for me? How much of a difference is it going to make from the 138? Will I get just as much pop as the 138 and soft landings? Also, has anyone rode this board without the center fin? How's that ride?

havent rode the watson 134, but i used to ride the blindside 136 and i weigh like 185..yes that was too small for me but if you weigh 160 then a 134 should be alright..you'll be able to throw that board around like crazy too..

Steve this just my opinion, but I would would go with the 138 or 142 <BR>I went from riding a 133 parks to a 142 Watson <BR>Love everything about it. <BR>I am 5' 5" 150lbs

sorry to high jack the thread but peopl who answer him... is a 134 too small for me... im 5'6 145 pounds

chris...a 134 should be fine for you

depends on the rider. You could go either way with it. If you arent happy with it, take it back, and get a different size. <BR> <BR>Larger boards get more pop/softer landings, but they are heavier. You also have more weight though, meaning tougher spins...
