suggestion for a new board?

I have been using my husband's board for the last two seasons, and decided to buy a smaller board for myself. I weigh about 135. My husband insists on buying me a signature board since he doesnt want me to grow out of it very quickly. I was in between Obrien Skyla 135 and LF Jett 136. A male friend recommended LF Watson Classis (which is not specifically designed for ladies). is there any difference between the ladies boards and men boards? all three boards are 3-stage rocker, and i have never tried this before. should I stick with continuous rocker? if so what model do you recommend (BTW, i am interested only in Obrien or LF)?
thanks.
