I weigh much less, am shorter, and am a relatively newby JONG when it comes to snowboarding, but I am absolutely obsessed with the Goldfish I bought from Aaron aka Spicoli 2.0 at Soul Motion: http://www.elevatedsurfcraft.com/snowsurf-boards/
Not sure what sizes he has, I got a 147, but that board is so surfy and quick in the trees and lays down a harder turn than any pair of skis or board I've been on. Not sure how you feel about super short boards with no tail, but I've greatly enjoyed it. I know he's built custom ones for bigger dudes.
I'm just about to order a Backwoods as a split though. Would love to get a Storm Chaser or Goldfish for splitting but seems pretty wonky for walking.
