If you can try both that would be best. The 138 should be good but you could ride either. I would lean towards the 138.

I agree with Kristian. You could ride both, but the 138 should feel better for you.

Nor-Cal definitely holds the patent on "hella". I'd also say go 138. That board rides pretty big.

I am 5'10" 155 lbs---I rock the 142!!!!

Also, your profile says you are 15---get the 142 as you can grow into rather than out of your board(unless you plan on getting a new board every year). It is a great board! Enjoy!

im going to have to disagree on this one chuck... u never want to get a board thats to big for you so ull grow into it.ull sit ontop of the water too high and ull never get the boards full potential..the 138 does feel like it rides big. i went from a 135 premier to the 138 trans and i can tell a whole lot of diferences between size. i would still say the 138 is a way better and HELLA better size for you
