I'm 5'5" and about 160 and I rode the Marek 146 and I also ride the Monarch 54. I like the Monarch better for the softer landings. I have never ridden a board that lands in the flats as soft as the Monarch for me. I am comparing this board to LF Trip, HL Murray, HL Tribute, LF Team, CWB Transcend, CWB Marius, LF Watson and LF Shane. Of all the boards listed my two favorite are the Monarch and LF Trip.
