Tansho's 90cm is plenty big for someone your size and i think all those stats are based on the average rider size, meaning im sure you will get plenty of pop on the tanshos and could float right through powder with you weight....ive been riding 90's and under skiboards for years so you will not grow out of them. least not till your 6' and about 150lbs and hittin 50' tables anyway then you might need something a bit longer as i do and will be getting shortly.

Bwps seem to me like a better all mountain kind of board and they will serve you well as a beginner, and as your skills progress you wont need to upgrade, because you'll already have awesome park boards.

i agree yeah he wouldnt have to by new boards but the recomended hight is 5'2" for <u>Releasables</u> and we all know how good releasables are in the park
