Snowboard Recommendation for 5'5, 115lb girl?

Question

I'm looking for a snowboard for myself. I'm about 5'6 & weigh about 115lb and wears about 6.5 size shoes. I've been snowboarding for about 4 years so I guess you can call me an 'intermediate' rider (I don't fall on my butt but I don't do any 'tricks' when coming down the hill)-- I usually hit Big Bear area in Southern California. I don't need anything fancy but if someone can recommend the type of board I should get, any binding and shoe recommendation and the price range I should expect when purchasing these, I'd appreciate it. Also, if anyone know of a good (cheap) place in southern california (OC area) let me know where that is so I can check it out. Thanks!
