I just bought an 03' for 70 bucks off of E-bay, it was supposed to be shipped by today but I think they f*cked up my order because I paid for 2nd day air and the idiots sent it by ground so i won't be able to use it til next weekend.

Foxy111, there is no such thing as a Hyperlite 112.
If you mean a scape, (which totally blow by the way. I've seen one delman after 1 ride), or a Karma, or Catalyst, or SOMETHING, be more specific. The 112 just refers to the length, that's it - this is not a model name.

| dont get a 112cm board, itll probably be too big for a person of your size

Damn that's overpriced!
I'd go with as small of a skate as you can find like a Kampus K-39.

i'd go for a hyperlite scape 107... i've got some 2006 scape 112's on eBay right now ( http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7183702403 ) but I can get you a 107 if you'd like for $79.99 plus $19.99 shipping (inside usa)... these aren't available in stores yet! e-mail me or pm me if you're interested...

Ok, I am biased, but I hate Kampus. Yes I hit rails on this, but come on, you have to admit this is shoddy.

any hyperlite skate will be to large for you. look for something around 39-40 inches.
