  • Answer:

    It can be a good board if you plan at staying at that level. Im 5'2 and ride a 142cm. Burton is a good brand and make good boards. If you are just riding around it can be a good board for you to mess around with for a while. A cheap burton is hard to come buy so I think it would be a good board. Good to improve on as well. A smaller board is always easier to ride and controller, might be able to learn a little more on it.

It's not absurdly too short, and if you're only doing park riding it will be okay. I'm 5'4 and ride a 149 and it's perfect. Try holding out for a little bit longer board. Try Head boards. They have a good price for a good beginning board, and you'll be able to get the right size.
