no thats not bad, my buddy had a 125 squirt and he was at least 150 -160 lbs. so a 133 shouldn't be a problem, but if you still need to grow i would spring for a new board next season.

I ride a 133, and i weigh about 145. I have always rode the smaller end boards, but if you have the chance i would bump up, but it's not like you need to go out and buy a new board soon or anything. That board will ride pretty good for now.
