you could easily ride the 139 or 144. Most likely at your weight i would say 139, but wow 6 foot is tall, so I think you could probably do either. someone else?

I think the larger board has more flex personally. I'm 5'9 and 185 (had the 139) and wish I would have gotten the larger Roam.

Yeah I'm 5'8" 150 and like the 144 most, its super flexible and the extra surface area lets you really butter it around. With proper training the gnar can be completely obliterated.

Big Heavy - right on...I'm about the same size as you...I was wondering what size to get myself. Have you looked at the Ronix roam-type board....is it worth considering or is the Roam still the way to go I wonder?

the concept of the covenant makes more sense to me. that is, the reduced side cut on the covenant compared to the roam, less likely to "bite" yet still super flexy and what not.

so stoked to get on the covenant. i am 6'1'' 185lbs and am going with the 145, maybe even the 150, we will see after demoing.

at your height I'd go with the 144. 26" wide stance all the way out on the 144.

Im 5'8" 170 and ride the 144 roam no problem. Im looking forward to the ronxi covent 150. More speed, more pop, more butter, more GNAR what else could you ask for.
Let out all your line and slaysh it up
