Yeah something like what Ray said, maybe K2 zeppelin wide? I'd get a wide board if I was you though and at least 164, probably longer.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

i have been renting burton boards while away not sure what model but did prefer a 162 to the 165 and did try a 160 at Xscape but didnt really get the feel of that as just as you get going there your at the bottom.

I bought it on ebay and is a bit knackered (has had professional repairs etc for a gouge) but it has been serviced and is good for a season rather than renting, or in my case as a spare board for off piste etc.
Actually I think I have just pursuaded my self to keep it

Pah! Not every problem in life can be solved with Burton Custom!
The board I'd recommend is in my sig, as you weigh about the same as me and your feet are only slightly smaller.
