I have a Dakine Low Roller 157 which holds a 158 (eithout bindings) and 153 board with bindings, helmet, backprotector, gloves, goggles, and boots in separated compartments. Could even stuff it with some clothes. For your 159 board this 157 bag would work as well. Even hubands 164 board fits without problems with all the other stuff. Dakine offers very good quality for a rather low price.

Whatever you do, get one with wheels. Got my first bag with wheels this year and I am kicking myself for not getting one years ago. I have a 181 bag but ride a 163 and love it as it allows me pack multiple boards should I choose, keep the bindings on, all my equipment and some clothes as well. I even put my brother in-laws skis in it so we would have less bags to fool with.
Recently purchased a 157cm Dakine Low Roller for my younger sister. Before I gave it to her I was able to get a 159cm, 156cm and 154cm without bindings. 2 pairs of boots, 1 set of bindings and a tuning Kit. Fit like a glove.
I'm trying to get a bag as well for my Helmet, boots, bindings, and clothes for a 159 board and am looking at the low roller.
I'd rather get the 157, but in your comment you mentioned you could fit a 159 without bindings? Does that mean bindings have to be removed each time with that bag on a 159 board?
Get the biggest bag you can. My longest board is 164 cm, my bag is 181 cm. I can fit multiple boards (without bindings), boots, helmet and extra clothes in it.
Just beware of the temptation of packing more stuff into a bigger bag. The bag will still have a weight restriction on it which will vary from airline to airline.
Nothing gets your trip off to poor start like getting to check in to be told that you now have an overweight baggage fee.

it would take a hell of a lot of gear for the bag to be overweight. I believe the weight limit is generally 50 lbs(been a few years since I needed to be concerned). Last time I flew with my gear I had 1 158cm solid w/bindings, 1 164cm split board w/bindings, skins, crampons, collapsible ski poles etc,
boots, a helmet, googles, gloves, jacket, pants all in my board bag. It was well under weight.
