meh, I just dont really like the way flow bindings look

I always have used Burton bindings, and probably always will.

What is a good begginer board? What length should I get? Im sure I can find a nicely priced one on ebay, used or not.

[Henry]

used would be better for a beginner, but make sure its not totally thrashed
and it should go about to your mouth

[Trude]

yah for a beginner, it dosnt really matter what kind of board you have, as long as its not like...in peices haha

To my mouth from my feet im thinking is about 172-173 cm. Im about 6'2. That ok you guys think? What are the general lengths around that area?

Well there's more to consider than just your height. If you're 6'2" but weigh 135lbs you shouldn't be riding a 170cm.

Generally you want it to hit between the bottom of your chin and your lower lip. if you're a beginner it should be a bit shorter. Just about at your chin. But like I said, weight also effects it. If you're really thin you might want to try something just below your chin. The smaller the board, the eaiser it is to ride, but the less surface area you have to keep you sliding.

Before anyone argues about sizing with me, I worked at a ski resort sizing people for rental equipment for a long time. I'm trained, you're not. Shutup.
