I assume you realize that a pro model board is very unforgiving when you're learning to ride. I don't know if that is the case, but I just thought that should be pointed out. That should be fine for your size. I'm the same, stays around 170, and I've ridden a HL 138 that works fine, I prefer mine which is larger, but to each his own. If and when I get a new board the Murray is first on my list at the moment. I wouldn't worry to much about the year if you are getting a good deal on it. What is he asking? Just be aware that brand new previous year model boards can be picked up at board shops for considerably less than current models. Don't pay $300 for a used '05 when you could get a brand new '08 for very little more. Hope this helps.

I ride an 08 Murray, its a pretty good board but I have been told that the pre 08 boards are slow, not sure if that is true but you might want to look into it.
