i think you are going to need a bit bigger board 7.5-7.75 is more for flippy type stuff...go 8 plus and you'll fare better on transition :D there is route one in chester,but id rather stick bee's up my ass than hand money to them :lol:

I'd say 7.75 would be fine...you'll get used to what ever your riding.
