I'd go for a used deck in the 154cm range if I were you. Don't go for anything too stiff as a beginner. I'd worry less about the board to start out with but do find a good pair of boots. As a skier you already know what I mean probably. Eventhough they are 'soft' boots there is a huge range of quality & comfort - just like ski boots, you get what you pay for.
