151 for someone whos' 5'1
That sounds like something you'd have to grow into.
You're probably going to hit a growth spurt really soon So i wouldnt buy anything super expensive unless you or your dad is good at selling things on craigslist.
Craigslist is your friend for something like this.

Seriously. It is awesome that you want to try boarding, but go to your local resort, rent equipment and take a professional lesson. You may despise snowboarding. then you are stuck with gear that is worth 50% of what your dad spent after one trip up.

Yes, if you want to go a 2nd time, buy boots, rent board.
