Hi, I've been riding on and off for about a year now and have started to do jumps and stuff, and i'm now thinkin the board i've started with might be a bit to big and heavey to do tricks on... It's a freemotion 143 drive, and im about 6ft weight 190 pounds, what size board do you think i should go down to? cheers

i dont think the length is the prob. brands like freemotion arent big on quality, there more for value and it prolly is heavier than other 143s, but if u still think that length is too long for u than go with a 141 or 139.
good luck

thanks for the reply, i thought it might have been a bit of a budget board but wasnt' fully sure. i wasn't sure about the length just thought that it might have been too big of a board, but then i havent had any others to compare it against. I've been lookin at some liquidforce boards, i hear there a good make? sorry for the newbie questions, im just not very familiar with board makes and stuff... Neutral

cheers
