   Hey guys I'm new to the forum, and I was getting a new board and needed some help.  I mainly ride freestyle; park, jumps, groomers, and little powder.  I'm 6 feet tall and weigh about 135 without gear on(tall and skinny).  I have been snowboarding for a long time, but I'm starting to get serious.  I'm looking for a board that will be good for all of those things, which I understand may not be possible,  I was thinking about the NS SL-R.  But wouldnt having a snowboard with a rocker make me have to re-learn everything if I decided to switch to a different board.  BTW money isnt really an issue.

not sure which NS you should get but that's a good place to start.

Now, if you've been snowboarding a little while, you will not have to relearn if you switch back from the NS SL-R to a non-rockered board. The NS SL-R sounds like a good choice for you. I would pick the 153 or 155... (I'm 5'9" 145 lbs and I ride the 155 although not the R version).
