I have been looking at boards to buy and I cant seem to come to a conclusion on the size I should choose. I was thinking between 141 and 137 but im not sure.

5'10
180 lbs
athletic build

If anyone could shed some light here it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Ryan

I'm 5' 9", 190 and I ride a 143. It might be a little big for me but I like that it rides up on the water a bit more and so it is a little faster. I'd go with the 141 if it were me.

im 6'1" 195 and im riding a 139. personally i would think a 143 would be way to big but if it works for you then good on ya! I agree with rscott tho 139 or 141 should go real nice.

Honestly you'd be fine with any where from 139-143. The bigger the board the more pop
