I'm looking to get a new board and would like anybodies help finding one asap. Were looking at getting a board around 139 cm but it can be smaller because it's probably going to become my brothers board and he's quite a bit smaller than myself. We just started boarding last summer so were not very good at but I was thinking maybe an intermediate board because were learning fast and I wouldn't want to be stuck with a beginners board. Also we want it to look sweet, I know this is cliche but we need to show off some how! We were looking at the older Body Glove CRW signature series but they discontinued it so were on the lookout again. We looked at the new CRW but I don't like it as much as the old one. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Very Happy

UPDATE

I may have changed my mind and decided to get a smaller board because we have a 142 cm board, I have no clue what it is we just bought it on a whim last year. My brother weighs 180 lbs compared to my 215 lbs. I realized thats a huge size difference if I'm correct. Is there a good board size that we could both use? Suggestions for both of us now would be awesome!

A 140 would suit you guys right, maybe 141. a 138 will feel sluggish at your weight, the 142 probably feels pretty good to you, but rides high in the water for your brother.

KK thanx for the info, we decided just to get him a board since the one we have now is suited pretty well for myself. I'm using the internet to learn as much as I can about boards as possible and these were the 3 he was looking at. I like the Liquid Force better than the other 2. What do you think about it?
