hey guys, im looking for something preferably in the 158-159 range however i wont be picky. My gear is getting quite old and i dont think i use it nearly enough to warrent buying new, so if someone is looking to upgrade or has anything laying around they wouldnt mind selling lemme know. I probably wont need bindings, just board.

that’s a good board, depends on what you weigh though. it has a biaxial fiberglass weave instead of quasi isotropic, intended for lighter riders (I used to ride one though, I’m 5’11" 165 lbs and had a '56). anything with magne-traction will do severely better in rough conditions. a traditional board only has two points of contact on the effective edge, whereas the serrated magne-traction has 7 points of contact per edge. It’s like night and day riding them back to back (magne-traction vs. regular).

How much do you weigh? I have that K2 zero in a 156 for sale… I couple cm’s shorter than you’re looking for.

Na… I don’t even size ski’s by height anymore. Two guys the same height but are a 75lb difference from each other should not be on the same length board. Weighing in around 190, I ride 155-158… 55’s are cambered, and 58 is rockered. I’m also 5’ 7
