Ummmm. you posted at midnight and poked us back at 4AM (local) ????????
Lots of us are on here daily willing to help.... but you will need to relax a bit.


Board sizers are available on all company webpages. Go to Ronix.com and see what they recommend. Either way, some folks like larger than suggested boards and some like smaller than suggested boards. I would not go more than 20 lbs outside of recommendations, but that is just me....

Are you still growing/mature, 6'0 & 160 / 5'0 & 160, a jr rider / pro .... ... all of these things matter.

As everyone will recommend.... go to a shop and demo boards before you buy. If it is too late and you blew all your change, learn to love your new board.

should have gotten the 37. I'm 6'2" 165 and I'd use the 42 before anything else

I have a 134 Kink and am 6' 162.....that board is about as small as I woudl ever dream of going ....I like smaller boards but I am having a hard time adjusting my landings...with the smaller board I am having to figure out how to displace my weight without eating it....i am sure that your transition will be even tougher on a 132...but hey as we all know to each his own on these boards

Why did you ask after you ordered it?

Doesn't make much sense.

Wkaeboards are basically what you think feels right. for example I'm 5' 10'' 165lbs. and ride a 136. On the other hand my brother is about the same size and rides a 142. Anyway it depends what your styles like and what you preffer. It is a little small for me though.

well as for the board I'm a huge ronix fan, although I have never rode the frontier I own the vault and I love it. But I have heard really good things about the frontier.
