I haven't ridden it but the description sounds nice. My only concern would be how big those center fins are.

My gf took her first set yesterday on her new Diva 135. She's a beginner but she totally loved the board. We took the center fins off before we ever hit the water. Only way to ride. Wink Cool

The Diva is a beginner board. It sounds like your girl knows what she is doing. If she is already going w2w then you may want to get her something close to the setup that she has been riding. I wouldn't take her backwards. The Diva is not a forgiving board to land on. I was killing my knees with it, so I went to the Cadence (like the Substance). That too was not forgiving, so for fun I jumped on a guy's Watson that I ride with and fell in love. My knees do not hurt anymore when I land and I go bigger and had to be let out on rope length. If your girl needs a girly board then the Jett is very similar to the Watson. But beware, girls boards tend to cost more.
