I got a good deal on a 138 board, would that be okay riding at 180lbs?

Go for it! I've been riding a Parks 138 for 3 seasons at that weight. I've had friends at or above 200 lbs. ride it with no problems.

How much did you pay for your parks? Just wondering because I'm trying to sell my 04 138

I should hope so, I've been losing weight, but am still at 235.

Started riding a 144, and have spent some time on a 141 and even a 136 lately.
