I have been riding for 4 seasons. Mostly powder and hard packed mountain riding. The size of my current board is 141 (yes, I am female, 5' tall just under 110 lbs). I seriously think I should move up to a board. How much difference and what kind of difference will I notice going from my current board up to a 150? I am looking at the burton Feelgood ES 150

I think that increasing the size of your board by 9cm would be a very drastic difference. Also, you won't weigh enough to really control the board. Remember, hieght makes no difference, just weight. I'm 110 pounds too, and I ride a 143 in the park and a 146 or 147 on groomers or hardpack. I think that if you are looking for a serious powder board i wouldn't go any longer than a 148, and I wouldn't recommend using that for your all-the-time board. If a 141 was sufficient, start by increasing the size slowly. There is no point in making this harder for you.
