Can someone break down weights and what size you should ride, like 110 - 130 pounds and the board size. I know some but I am not totally sure and I know that there is a lot of personal preferance involved can someone just give me rough numbers thanks!

check the board wizard on the main page its about as accurate as u can get.

well heres what i think of it as-

140-143: 170+ pounds unless over 6'0

137-139: 110-175 and around 5'8

135-138: 90-130 and around 5'3

134 and below: below 100 unless under 4'8

thoose are some pretty rought numbers though.

What exactly are you doing the speech on? Are height and size vs board size the focus? Lifestyles? General info? Introduction?

um those numbers are pretty off. 134 under 100? are you kiding>? more like 124 100 and under.

130- 100-135

134- 120-150

137-139 135-170

140-143 160 on up

its really more personal preference than anything

If you are doing a speech, and giving out those kind of facts, most people are not going to remember them unless you have them up on a slide (like using Powerpoint). If you are just rattling off a bunch of numbers, people won't remember. It's better to just be general e.g. larger board size for bigger people, smaller board size for smaller people, and maybe give a couple of examples (e.g. a 180lb guy would probably ride a 140, whereas a 130lb girl would ride a 135 or something like that). It's too much detail.
