If you haven't tried it yet, I REALLY think you should check out the Bandwagon from Ronix. It is a really mellow carving around kind of board, super forgiving, and a blast to ride. The camber also changes the way you feel the water under the board. It's not for everyone...most love or hate it...but I've progressed way more since moving over to camber (I ride the Parks) than any other board. The camber shape (along with board having a bit of flex) makes for really, really soft and forgiving landings on those knees.
Check out a 2014 model to save some bucks if you want, and for your size I'd say go for the Standard size (the XL is huge lol).
Here's a vid on the air core version (crazy light board also but a bit more than ATR version).
