I am 5'6 bout 160lbs. Which board would you guys recommend for me. I know if varies but just trying to get a feel for what everyone thinks. I have been riding a 134 LF Substance.

hey brandon im about 165 5'10 and i got the 139, but i like going huge!

if your more of a wake to wake tech guy then id for sure get the 135, if you go out there and throw every thing in the flats you could consider the 139.

Thanks Danny! I actually already got the 135 but haven't ridden it yet b/c I'm still debating on if it's the best one for me. Once I put it in the water, that makes my decision for me.

I would say the 139 but I'm a fan of big boards...I'm riding the 139 and am only 5'8" 140lbs....its light enough I don't notice the size jump.

I'm 5'8" 165 and I ride the 139. I think a little bigger board lands better, but it's all up to your preference if you like a bigger or smaller board.

Damn! So it looks like I may need to go with the 139 huh? Will 4cm really make that much difference either way?

Brandon, im 5'8 and 150 and i rode the 135. the size felt perfect for me. i felt i had total control of the board at that size. also remember that this board has wider stance capabilities then other boards so if you want a bigger board just for the stance you dont need to with the lyman.

youll have so much fun on the 135. go out and shred it.

some boards you need to go bigger to get the softer landings but you wont need to worry about it with the lyman.

dude the 139 would probably be better. I'm effing 5'10" and 138lb. and it's perfect.

Just make sure to get that baller wide stance !

I ride smaller boards but picked up the 139 vs the 135 due to how light it is and I'm sure my knees will thank me later on. This board with 07' shanes is lighter than my 133 Subjekt with 06 Transits.

Saying I am 5'7" is a stretch and 150 lbs, I ride the 139, love it. I was on a 134 Substance and the 139 feels no different.

How much difference is the 4cm going to make? Either way?

Looks like more people are fond of the 139 over the 135
