i check several sites and the 137cm is 44cm wide

not a typical litewave design , more like KGB, Starkite,

wood core , thin flexi type.

if you are already riding and want a board with a lot more range
just on size, type and build. 137 would be what i favor. it is very similar to what i ride @200lbs.

161 is gonna be clumsy in comparison. a cruiser type

at 44cm wide this will be as good any light wind board with sharps rails and slick bottom.

check the size!
just by seeing the construction and shape (a commonly cloned sandwich type) it is less expensive for sure .
