A 143 should be good, probably about the smallest you should go. And It may be a bit harder to get up at first, but If you don't get up at first, keep trying. But yes, the board should be good for you.

Liquid*Force*Rider, wow that helps a lot. Rolling Eyes

Element284, your board is about perfect for your size. Definatly don't go any smaller than that though. The Vero will be a great board for learning how to get up along with the basics.

What kind of bindings do you have?

im 205 and i ride a 141 and it rides great. I think it all depends on how you want the board to feel but a 143 should work good.
