I wanna go and buy the Burton Hero 2012, the thing i’m dealing with is te size of the board! I’m about 6’0’’ , 170 lbs (with clothes) and I have bootsize 10!
The Burton website recommends a 158, but I’m little more of a freestyle rider, so wouldn’t it be better to buy a bit smaller like a 157, 156 or 155?

Thanks a lot

If you want to jib, spin and butter go (a bit) smaller…  if you want to run and gun + catch big airs stick to the recommended size.
