Hello,
i want to buy a slingshot reflex (2010) but i don't know which size i have to choose. I'm only at the cable and my wheight is 195 lbs. So i don't know if i should get the 137 or the 141 board. My current board is a 141 O'brien but in my opion it's not that fast spinning than shorter boards of my friends. But i've never tried a flex-board. Maybe it would be too short?

At my cable they don't have any slingshot boards so i can't test it.
So i hope you can help me. Thanks Smile

at 195lbs, you shouldnt be on a board below 140 IMO (I am 190lbs and ride a 142)

So I would go with the 141... But then again, I dont ride cable.
