Height

Of cource, if your tall you wan't to buy a longer longboard.

but if your heavy set-fat then you will want to get a middle size

board for safety purpose's.

No, that's a myth. However tall people have more back problems than shorter people because their spines are longer.

It stated these facts (no matter whether one is tall or short:

• The country the person lives in. 3rd world, or a country that has a well nourished population.
• Whether either smoke or do drugs.
• Whether either are alcholics
• Short people have a tendency to retain more fat around the chest and stomach area than tall people.
• Tall people can suffer from many problems such as disc problems in the back, lung problems, etc.

The articles are all opinions and are based on slack facts. I still say it's a myth.

I got off a trustworthy website why small people are better (which they are!). Here are some facts it gave me, i know its a lot but its all true!:

• hysical advantages of shorter height

  Shorter people of the same proportions as taller people have many physical advantages based on the laws of physics, and these advantages are supported by many researchers. Shorter people have faster reaction times, greater ability to accelerate body movements, stronger muscles in proportion to body weight, greater endurance, and the ability to rotate the body faster. They are also less likely to break bones in falling. As a consequence of these physical attributes, shorter people can excel as gymnasts, divers, skiers, martial artists, rock climbers, figure skaters, rodeo riders, soccer players and long distance runners. Within their weight classes they are excellent wrestlers, boxers, and weight lifters.

  Shorter people are also less likely to require surgery for herniated spinal disks. In addition, shorter people are less likely to break a hip from falling. Another advantage of smaller people is that they are less likely to die in auto crashes. One study found that people weighing less than 132 pounds had the lowest risk of dying or suffering serious injuries compared to bigger people. Although height data weren't provided, it is known that height and weight tend to be correlated. Thus, lighter weight people are more likely to be shorter than heavier people. No adjustments for air bag deployment were made, although other studies have found them to negatively affect short people.

• Increased longevity of shorter, smaller people

  An early paper illustrating the greater longevity of shorter people appeared in the Bulletin of the World Health Organization in 1992. Since then we have presented substantial findings showing that shorter, smaller people live longer. The reason for this is that bigger bodies have more cells and these cells are subject to replacement due to wear or damage. Hayflick pointed out many years ago that most human body cells have limited capacity for duplication. Since bigger people require a larger number of duplications to reach maturity, they have fewer potential cell doublings left to replace defective or dead cells. Thus, the functional capability of vital organs declines with advanced age because damaged cells can't be replaced. A new study also showed that oxidative damage to cells increases at a higher rate with increasing height; e.g., an 18% increase in height leads to an 83% increase in cellular damage. Current gerontological thinking is that oxidative damage leads to aging and death.

  A few years ago, a comprehensive study of about 300 height and cancer papers, concluded that taller people had a 20 to 60% higher incidence of cancer compared to shorter people. More recently, breast, testicular, and prostate cancer studies found taller women and men suffered from substantially higher cancer rates.

  Short people are not immune to death from heart disease, cancer, and other causes. Failure to control diet, physical inactivity, overweight, depression, and anger can lead to serious health problems. Therefore, poor health and mental practices can lead to reduced longevity for people of any height.

About 2 meters, but there have been people almost 3 meters tall.

I am currently doing a math problem and found that an average exact woman's height in meters (exact number but approximate answer) 2.307692308 m for a woman.
