I ride the 129, and it's a blast. nice and fast, lose without the fins, and just an all-around fun board. Excellent pop, and cuts like a dream... that little bit of exra width and wider tip & tail make for a sick ride. Lands nice and smooth if/when you set it down right. I think the 137 would be a little big for you, coming from a 142... Liquid Force recommends riding the board 10cm shorter than your prior board, so I think you would be best with the 133. I went from a 142 Substance to a 129 Fish, and the 129 feels perfect. Some may argue that "fun quotient" is not the most important factor when looking at a board, but I can say without question that this is the most fun board I have ever ridden. It just happens to be extremely well-rounded as well
