Im thinking of getting the hyperlite state 140. Im 5'10 200lbs. Ive tried two other boards, one was 135 and the other was 143. I had a much easier time getting up and staying up on a 143, than the smaller board. what do ya think?

longhorn814,
Definitely go for the 140. I'm 6'3' and about 240 lbs and ride the State 145 and love it. You won't be disappointed.
