Hi, I'm looking to buy my first board, I'm 6ft, 190lb, size 12 boot. I ride mountain atm, but will look to get into the park a bit. I'm not sure which size i should get, a 156W or 159W...any suggestions? Will the 156W handle my weight?

The 159 would be a better fit. The 156w could handle your weight, but you'd fit into the sweet spot for the weight range on the 159w, while topping out on the 156w's weight range.
