Riding a board that is too big for me if I am comfortable with it cuz people are always commenting on it saying I should get a smaller board, that's too big for you and all that... Why should it matter if I am comfortable?

I think that if I can do tricks with a big board then its fine and you can move down and be like wow this board is so light you know?

yea, smaller boards have less to move around so what seems like a 360 on a big board, could change to a 540 with just as much effort on a smaller board

I ride a board thats somewhat big for me and I love it. I think there is nothing wrong with it as long as you like. Who cares what other people say about it. If it makes a huge difference then I'd go smaller but for a simple difference I'd stick to the board you feel comfy on.

yeah you totally should, you might be surprised, or you might not, but at least you'll know which is best for you.
