Gator Boards R. Gonzalez = 138 or 136

From what I understand, the RG measures in more like a 136 than a 138. Considering I'm 6'1" 185 lbs, am I too big for this board?

I understand that it usually boils down to personal preference. But strapping myself to a 136 just doesn't sound right. I'm not really in a position to demo this board so I was hoping someone could help set me straight based on what they've seen, heard, rode, etc. thx.

from what i have heard they are making a 142 or something along that line which would be better for you if you like that board

The 142 may work...but I can get a killer deal on the 138.

Also, did the RG change from a continous to slight 3 stage from '03 to '04? The board section on WW labels each year differently?

the 138 is actually a 136 you should be fine on that board ricky is probly 6'0 195 and he does fine on that, the new 142 will be out soon the new board is very similar to the old one with a slightly different hull and new graphics
