I've heard some good things about the Mana, and can pick one up at a good price. Right now I'm on an LF Witness 140 and it feels ok to me. I split the board with a local friend, and I've moved the boat off that lake - so have to get my own board. Mana is offered in a 138 and a 142. Just started riding last year. I can clear heel side, not toe side, and can only do basic surface stuff. (I'm a bouy chaser / trickskier that just learned to board) I'm 5'11", 165-170lbs. Coming off an LF 140, which would everyone advise - the 138 or the 142. Also, I currently have 11-12 LF Vantages on the Witness. Easy to use boot, open toe. I have a size 10.5 shoe. Looking at the Ronix Kai boots. Just not sure if I should go with a 10 or another 11-12. Not sure how the Kai's run size wise. These are closed toe with a heat moldable liner. Figured that would make a diff in sizing. So what do you guys recommend? Also - how do you heat the linings to your foot?
