I am 6'1, 225lb. I currently ride a 162 burton king and feel that I can use a more flexible and perhaps slightly longer board which I assume should help me turn/slow down faster and exert less energy. (right/wrong?). From what I am reading Custom wide sounds like a good board for me. Should I be going with a 167? Are there other boards that I should consider? I mainly carve with an occasional adventure into the moguls to entertain skier friends.

just so you know you asked this question on the kids cutsom page haha...but that aside, a shorter board with softer flex will help you exert less energy, the board will "give" a little more and you will have less board to kick around...and the custom will be great for you because it is a very versatile board
