Advice on a Board for my Daughter

Ladies,
I have a 13 yr Daughter. I need to put her on a better board and one better suited for her size. She is only about 70lbs and 4'8". I'm interested in getting a board that can grow with her, even though she will only top out about 5'4" and a 110lbs if she is anything like her mother. Any suggestions?

I suggest check out sites like buywake.com, wakeworld.com, boardstop.com, and wakeside.com. And I see you took my advice Laughing

My son 10 years, 80+ lbs, he uses a Nemisis, and element bindings.
Forgot what length it is, but I got him the mid length one. He seems to be OK on them.

I would suggest a LF Cadence 131 (same as nemesis) that you could get right now for less since its a 2006 board. Im 90 lbs and I use that, its very lightweight and she could use it for a long time, its for sizez up to 120 or so. Another one could be the LF Angel 130. Dont forget to buy her decent bindings!

Thanks everyone for the advice. I'm getting the impression that Liquid Force is the board of choice. I just need to figure out size. I was thinking about 128cm. I realize that she could out grow this board, but I'm thinking this would be ok since she has a younger sister that's 8 and has just started boarding. Any suggestions or advice is appreciated.
