I would not ride a 150. That's just too small. Preferably you want your snowboard between your nose and chin, maybe a bit smaller if you're a park rat. But taking a small board out on the hill will only work against you.

i went from a 145 to a 156 and the difference was fucking huuuuuge. its taken me a lot of growth to get it so i can spin and manuever as fast on it...dont buy a board thats too tall for you.
