Come into 463 Main St and stand on the board before you commit, and bring your boots: fit and size depend on your feet far more than your height. We mount, tune and wax in-house, and we will tell you honestly if a cheaper board in the rack suits you better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy would I ride a 155 if I normally ride a 160?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Orca shape is volume-shifted: wide underfoot with a short running length. You size down and keep the float. If that sounds wrong, come in and stand on one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGolden Orca or Orca II?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Orca II is softer, friendlier and $100 less. The Golden Orca is stiffer and faster.
