Question

I would go with anything from 134-140.  You're not going to want to go too short but also not too long.  I think it's better to be a bit short on your board length than long.  I prefer a shorter board, feel like I have more control over it.  I've always bought my board that were just a little shorter than me.  If you go to your board shop they should be able to get you set up perfectly though.  If they can't, find a new shop.
