Hey huckelberry, I'm a definite big foot. Close to a 14. Long time skier and surfer. I'm looking at the sizing chart. I'm 6'0, 185 or so lbs depending on turkey and pie intake. So, what's the difference in free ride, free style, hucker, shucker, all mountain. I mean, come on, I just want to ride with my kid. I can rip on skis and surf pretty well. I tried snowboarding and didn't like the wetass aspect of it, but could be cool to do with my son. But, I was able to ride the groomers pretty well after a couple of days. So, what's the size for me, and is this the right board? Thanks grashopper.

if you use a good low profile boot like te solomon f-22, i would say that this is a decent board for you, if you stay out of the terrain park. at least dont try to do rails or jibs. as for the size you need, i would say that a 160-162 would be a good all around size. big enough for pow and stability, small enough to still do spins if you desire.oh, to ansewr your' other question. free ride is going fast over the natural terrain of the mountain and dropping features like cliffs, rock, and chutes. free style is doin tricks like 360's and jibs and what not, usually in a terrain park. all mountain is like a combination of freestyle and free ride. hope this helped, enjoy your shred!
