I'm thinking of buying a burtner's box scratcher and was wondering if the board rides longer like some other lib tech boards? I'm 5'8, 165lbs and have a size 9US boot and can't decide on a 151 or 154, any help would be appreciated.

Hey Ian, I rode the 147 and the 157 back to back and to be honest, I had more fun on the 147. This board was always designed to be a little board for big people. (I'm 6'3" 174lb) I'd go for the 151, but keep in mind that the board will be more specific to freestyle/jibbing and less all around riding at that size.
