board size question

[ghettolongsk8er]

i am 5'8 and 130lbs. if i ride a bigger boards like Rayne Demonseed or dudlly which i probly will only use like half of the board. Would it be more stable or hard to control? is the board size an issue to the rider?

It can be, but not too much. It's all about what feels comfortable to you though. My friend rides a DSeed and it about 5' 10" and he loves it, wheras I'm 6 foot and thought it was too big for me.... at first...


The big thing is bushing setup, if it feels too big and dead, throw some mad soft bushings in to liven it up! thats what we did, changed the whole ride.
