I have put on loads of weight since breaking my coccyx and I am now a stone and half too heavy for my 144 Salomon Lark board. I am 5'4 and about 10stone 8. Would it be worth just buying a new longer board or will I be ok with the extra weight?

I'm pretty much always over the suggested weight for boards (unless it's a men's board) and I don't think I have any problem.  Anyway, I would just ride the board - you'll know once you're on it if it doesn't feel right.
