What size snowboard should i get?
i am buying a lib tech skate banana
i am 5' 11' and 175 lbs
i ride about 80% trees, 20% park
should i get it in the 152,154 or the 156?
80% trees and you're looking at the banana?... If you're talking steep glades that's not exactly the board I would want to be riding. For you I would look at the 156 for sure but again that board is pretty soft. It'll be fine because of the r-camber when it comes to floating the fresh stuff but because of how soft it is when you start getting into a couple day old snow that's all rutted out and chopped up while trying to ride the steeps you're gonna be bucked around like a bucking bronco.
If you're talking mellow glades though then sure why not have fun with it 
. My gnu street handles the mellow stuff pretty well, it's just the super steeps and with day+ old chopped up snow that I prefer my other boards ,and the street is basically gnu's skate banana.
