I'm 170 pounds. Will this board hold me up?

Heck yeah it will and you will have a little bend to it to, for that smooth riding.

I don't think weight would be an issue. It is based on your height. I weigh 190 and I've cruised around on it just to test it out, and it holds up fine.

I weigh 158lbs. When I stand on the board and try to balance myself without the outer edges (perimeter) touching the floor, I notice a slight flex of the face of the board. I am sure that the heavier a person is that the face would flex more noticeably. This product works fine for me. If you need a stronger unit you will want to buy one made of a single piece of hardwood. I used one of them at my physical therapy session a couple of years ago and they do not give.

It'll hold you, but it will be a little more flexy than an advanced downhill rider would want. A flexy board is great to learn on, and great for cruising/carving, but once you start going fast (down billing or free riding) it can cause wobbles. My younger brother to this board, and it is very solid, but when I start going fast on it, it feels less stable than my land yachts evo downhill race board and my globe Geminon Freeride board. P.S. I weigh 140lbs.

I do not know exactly but I weight 150 pounds and it is just fine. The board is solid so I feel it can easily support a weight of of 185-200. the height I think is more important and I would not be comfortable with a height in excess of 6 feet. Good luck!

I believe it's 330lbs but I'm not positive. I am 270 and I've had no issues with the board.

You should be fine the board is as good as the bigger name brands and it should easily support your weight

I'm 225 and it floats me pretty good. It is not as stable as a fixed board but it is pretty stable. I've had a friend that was about 250 use it and he thought it didn't float him very well.

My wife is 5'6(130lb) and it works great. Im 6'1 (190lb) and its great for me too. Its a little heavy/awkward for a smaller lady to carry but can be done. At 5'3 she might be able to go with a shorter/smaller board too. They are great boards though.

My son is about 150 lbs...and the board hasn't cracked yet! So it would be a good first longboard for you. Have fun!

I'm 5'6 and 130lbs and I can jump on mine and bounce and it holds me quite well but when u get the board u should get new bearings cuz the ones on these suck also my board came uneven so only 2 wheels touch the ground but other then that it is a very nice longboard and worth the money

Hi! I'm not really sure. My brother is who owns the board his weight is 165 lbs aprox. I think the board will support you because I have a heavier cousin who has a board too but I don't know which brand is it. Sorry for not being helpful.

My first board has a max weight of about 245lbs. However this board is extremely low and even with Risers on the trucks, it still scrapes the ground a lot. I would recommend a higher board with less flex for riding if weight is above 200lbs.

No. This is belt driven. I weigh 190 and have had to change the belts 2 x's. I would not recommend the board for anyone over 200lbsIts a great board just made for someone 150 or less

I'm 200 lbs and it's fine for me. I understand this board is a very good value for money. I got it as a starter board and I love it. If it was any smoother I think it would be difficult to learn on, any less smooth and it wouldn't be any fun to ride. I can only speak from my own limited experience but I can say I'm very happy with my purchase.

That's a tough question. I'm 170 and can ride it, but it's on the smaller side because it was designed for a kid so I'd say you're probably better off looking for an adult board.
