I looked around to try to find the right size for me but couldnt find anything.

If im 165-170lbs and 6'0 what size slingshot response should i be riding?

I was thinking 137 but i hear a lot of ppl usually ride a bigger size SS board so that would be a 142

I am 180 and 6' and ride the 142 recoil...love it

I would go bigger than you usually do just because they're sooooo light a bigger size still weights as much as a tiny board, and the only thing you'll get is more surface area = more pop

Go 145!!! I'm 5 11, 195. and I love it. I think it might pop better cause of the added surface area too.

I rode the 142 last night and couldn't believe the pop! I want to try out the 145 cause I can only imagine how high I could get booted!

Thanks for all the input guys/girls

Ill most likely demo the 142 response this saturday.

I love how a cont. board rides but want more pop and I think the response will give me what im looking for.

Ill also def be checking out the marek and marius.
