Sounds like a 136-140cm. I would look for some old hyperlites or LFs. Maybe an old state?

Get a Parks, J/K

Like someone above said look on e-bay or if you are lucky enough to have a board shop around you, then check with them they could have some demo boards they could let go for pretty cheap.

Weight range for a 132 cm board is about 100-185 so take that into consideration...136 is more along the lines of 160+

Just find somebody to ride with and try their board out to see if you even like to ride before u spend any cash. If your just starting out you could buy just about anything. Go to wal-mart and buy a cheap hydroslide. If you hate it take it back, if not, ride it till it breaks Cool

i would go with a 135--------the board should come up just above your niples-----ex: im 5'2" 105 and i ride a 130 HYPERLITE PREMIER----its a great board but may be a little aggressive for first board!
