Try a 7.63 or 7.68. It depends how much feet you like to have on the board. Personally, I like being able to rest most of my feet when I'm cruising.

Well im 15 and have size 9.5-10 shoe size im about 5.4
i skate anything from 7.75 to 8.
if your just starting out go with somewhere around a 7.75
ive been skateing for years and started at 7.4 and slowly moved on up
i guess that would work too

it also depends on what you skate and just what you're comfortable with
i'm 5'2" and and a size 7.5 and i skate an 8.
i'd say try a 7.63-7.75 and see if it's comfortable or if you want to go bigger or smaller.
