Have an oppertunity to pick up a 2011 136 x-ride for good price . Discribe myself as fairly advanced rider just wondering if the 136 is going to be a bit big? Or has it got the small board feel about it? Have been using a 132 39 and have another 140 for the lighter stuff. Also how is the 136 for butterslides? Do alot of these on the 132 and I know they require a bit more effort on a bigger board. Thanks

I can only share my experience.
I own a 129x38 X-ride, Nice.., rode my buddy's 133, also nice, better low for me.
Rode another buddy's 136.... no fun didn't like the feel, to big, to slow in the turns. All 2010 X-ride's. I would not recommend it, i prefer the 129.
I'm light (70kg)
Btw what is a butterslide?

Thanks sounds like a 136 will be a bit on the large side. Re butterslide rather than explain it best google it, there are a few tutorials on this trick
