A word of warning here. Ill fitting boards and boots create issues with control, safety, and drag out the learning curve.
I had one son hit a tree with a poorly sized hand-me-down board and shear his entire knee joint and lower leg off his femur (through a growth plate thank God so it was a relatively easy surgical fix).
Board length and flex is both height and weight dependent.
Binding size and board width is foot size dependent.
Wrist guards are a good choice when learning.
How tall is your son and what does he weigh?
