You would probably be ok. It's definitely at the smaller end of the spectrum of boards you could get. I certainly wouldn't go any smaller. And it is a wide board as well, so it does have a little more surface area than a regular board to distribute your weight better. Not much of a difference, but it is some. I weigh 165 and have ridden a 156 before, which is as small as "they" say I should go, and felt fine. So I'd say you'd be ok. Go for it!
