I would get the 140. In 1 year, the 134 will be too small for you.

134 i think. I'm 5'10" 162 pds and I can ride an '03 parks 133 just fine.
def. get some advice from experienced riders tho

I weigh 150 soaking wet & I ride a 135. I was about your size when I was 14 & I didn't really grow all that much. Unless you count my huge hulking muscles. How big do you think you'll end up? Are you going to start drinking beer early? These are all valid questions when determining what board will last you until you are done growing. My vote is for the 134.

PS- The Motive is a sick board!
PSS- Don't drink beer!!!

the "fatter" you get the bigger board you need

and beer will give you a pretty nice "Molson Muscle" so its a pretty valid question

I drink probably 2 cases a week...7% body fat...beer doesnt make you fat, sitting on the couch makes you fat, o yeah, and genetics haha.
