snowboarders / those who work in shops

A little OT: Sometimes I feel like the length of my board is kind of impeding when it comes to tricks, jibbing around, etc.

When I stand next to my board, it’s about an inch above my chin. I feel like if I went shorter, grabs and spins would take less effort. btw. I weigh 150, I’m 5’8, and my board is a 153.

Thoughts?
