Arbor A-Frame Snowboard

My old Rome board cracked down the side and I've been looking at the A-Frame. I rode on a 55-Agent (which is 155 I believe). I am trying to decide which length of the A-Frame to buy. I have read that it is really easy to turn, so maybe I will go for the next step up above the 154, which is a 158, or I could just go 1 cm lower from a 155 to a 154. I also weigh 150-160, 5'8 Is this all preference? What will the longer board give me besides stability? Any help would be much appreciated.

I am 5'8" 165lb and went for 158 and i would recommend it, turns on a sixpence. Go big, go fast.
