What should be the height of my snowboard?

What height snowboard should i get?

  • i am 6 foot 1 inch and have seen a snowboard that is 145cm! is this the right size or should i get a taller or smaller one?

  • Answer:

    You need to get a longer board. The tip of the board should be at least to your chin if the tail is on the ground. You also might need a wide board if you wear a size 11 shoe or larger.

Well, the 145 is way to small unless you are using it to just mess around at a skatepark or something. A snowboard should generally be between your collar bone and your chin when the board is standing on the ground. You would want a little shorter board for park riding, (just below your collar bone). You could get a longer board if you like riding powder.

145 cm is way too small for you. Board size mainly goes by your weight. I weigh 145, i am 5'5" and a good size for me would be a 152. www.Backcountry.com has a chat feature with trained gear experts who can help you with that better, and they can help you with each board too. You can chat online with them.

definatley taller 145 is good for like a person that is 5'2 i would say like a 165 or 167 would be good for you. it also depends on what you ride; for park you want a shorter board and for powder you want a longer one. a good all around one should go to your chin or 1 inch above that
