This link tells you which board is best for your weight and level of experience:

This may not concern you, but be honest with yourself, if you don't think your experienced enough for a shortboard, don't get one because it will hold you back; you're better off with a fun-shape/minimal , if you feel you're ready for one then go for it! a shortboard should usually be around 2"-3" taller than the surfer.
