I recently bought a Gladiator Bliss 134. I'm 4ft 11in and 90 lbs. is this board too big for me? or would it be a good board for me to grow into?

it may be a bit big, but after a while you'll get used to controlling it. im 5'0 and about 100 pounds, and i ride a 134 LF Team. i like the 134. the only way you'll know is if you ride it and see how it feels.

yeah it might be a little big. i'm 5'3" and 112 lbs and ride a 130. But it should be fine, nothing you can't get used to.

I told some one else who was asking about board size about this hyperlite board that was a 125... check it out on wakeboarder.com... it looked nice... but i didnt read the description... but just in case your interested.

134 is a good size for you... you could go with smaller boards, but IMO I wouldnt go below 130. I weigh 90 lbs as well and used to ride a State 125. Then bought a Cadence 131 and is what I'm currently riding, but I already bought a Cadence 134 to use as well. Bigger boards will give you more pop and softer landings. They do have a little more swing weight, but it's only 3 cms larger!
