My friend is about buyin new board, He goes for CWB Marius.. now he's decidin which one is more fit between 134 and 140. He's 5' 9'' and 155lb. Always cable riding.. (we'r in Thailand) The cable speed is 28, i think. hits lots of kickers and throw air tricks what usually do in cable...

Any suggestions from u guys? Thank you in advance

was talking to Jusso Abbot other day about the marius (sweet ass cable rider out here) he rode the 140 but felt the 134 would have been better, he's about 176 lb, and reckons the 140 was a tad too much board for his style (cut hard cable)

cut hard cable.. ? Is it to create hard edge to build up speed ? so, my understanding, the 134 should be better for throwing air tricks? Thanks a lot

I'd say small one too. Sit a bit deeper, bury an edge better.

That board is really wide. You can get away with riding the smaller one without loosing much (if any) surface area. Billy Tonis is about 6' 175 and he prefers the 134 over the 140, and he goes big.

I can't speak on cable riding though. I don't know anything about it.
