I've been drooling over this board for quite some time but can not decide whether to go with the 154 or 158. I'm 6', 170 lbs. and an advanced rider. Will I gain any speed or control going with the 158 over the 154? Suggestions?

I'm 5'10" 225lbs ride burton frontier supermodel 175cm, get off that short crap ride big. all you need to do is become more aggressive. bumps & trees will be fine might need a little learning curve. I just snagged this same board 170cm from REi for 41% off I love back country.com but you need to get a little more aggressive in discounts you know with this poor economy

I would say go for the 158 or larger. You will gain stability, and therefore, speed.

6' 170 lbs. You really should be considering a 162 or a 166. unless your only focus in meat hucking, even then at you height a 162 will help you stomp it, with little spin effect.

you will get more speed and stability with the longer board...but you will get more control and manuverablility with the shorter board
