You really need 2 boards. One for them and one for you. I am also a tall guy and I ride a 141 so for yourself I wouldnt go smaller than 138. As for the little guys they should probably be riding a 128-134. If you get tham a 133 or 134 they can ride it on in to their teens. You can get good package deals at buywake.com

Tripleup is right...... except at 225lb id go for something 140 and up... You need to decide on Continous rocker or 3 stage rocker. Figure out what kind of fin setup would be best for you. And.... im tired can't think anymore.

I'd recommand a continuous rocker since you new to the sport... it'll be more predictable... and I seccond Paul... go for something bigger than 140...

Get a continous rocker board in the 132cm range for your boys. You will probably be well suited for a continous rocker board as well. Something 140cm or bigger for sure.
