I have never met kids' gear that matched the quality of adults' gear. Perhaps the Evo Grom is different, but I doubt it. Get the 147 OR ride a women's board (Gnu B-pro, Never Summer Lotus, etc.) They may still be little long for you, but the softer waist will allow you to turn more easily than a men's board would.
