I'm just getting started in the sport and have been using a friends old board to train on and make sure I liked it. His old board is a 136cm and it works great for me. (I am 6'1" but about 150#.) I found a great deal on a 134cm board, but wasn't sure if it would work for me. After reading a bit online, it appears as though the board will handle my weight bracket, but are there any other things I should consider before buying? Are there advantages to having a shorter or longer board?
