Yeah just double checkin here, i weigh like 115 and Im lookin at boards that are like 135cm, I would like to go lower but I cant find many beginner boards that are decently priced that are slightly under 135cm. Is 135 okay or should i really look for something smaller? thanks

TCFIRECRACKER, 135 and under for your weight.

Water displaces for weight, not height.

TCFIRECRACKER, If you are not full grown yet you might want to go a little bigger maybe like a 137 so you don't out grow it so fast.

TCFIRECRACKER, and hyperlitewakeboarding, I know chavez already said this but height has very little to no affect on what size board you should ride. 135-137 would be a good size for a beginner, after that size is really a preference and you should ride whatever size you feel is comfortable.
