board question

Hello, I have a question. I am very new to wakeboarding. Meaning I got up like three times. Anyway, I dont know hardly anything anout wakeboards. I think the board I am using is way to heavy for me. I am very petite, I am like 5'2 amd weigh like 90 pounds. The board I am trying to learn on is a 132 I think. I keep telling my husband that its way to big for me(example when i crash face first and am in the water on my belly i cant even twist the board over to get on my back to start over its just too heavy) anyway, he keeps telling me that the bigger boards are easier to control and i need a bigger one to learn on. I am having a hart time explaining to him that this one is just too heavy for me. Is this the right size for me or is does anyone have any suggestions on what size i should be using? thanks
