Talk to shaper is best advise you can get.

How much do you weigh??
What type of surf do you hit at your local??
At 5'0" you should be able to surf a small board....try a 5'8" fish if you are after fun easy turning easy catching. Or a 5'10 comp style chip if ur up for the challenge.

Really depends on your weight and skill level.....

Keep the stoke.
