Hey i think i might be able to help a bit! :) Anyway thickness is a factor but im not sure how important it is. Width and length i think should be about 52.5" x 19.75" Anything near this should be perfect for a wave riding skimboard. Thickness try 5/8" thick which is 20mm ? youll have 2 check that!!!! Anyhoo i hope i helped :)

Oh ye i forgot 2 mention that the sizes i gave are approx. for your weight
For future reference-height doesnt matter!! Its only down to weight!
Also the sizes are from a medium->medium/small victoria skimboards cos ur weights right inbetween the 2. I put the size thats right in the middle of the 2 boards so youll have the perfect size board and the width is from a slotstick, also a good make!!!!!
