Board Selection? HELP!!!!

I am new to carving this year and bought a Volkl 178 Tiger with TD1's. I am really enjoying it but am finding that i may have jumped in head first with a difficult /stiff board to control. i am looking for another board to add to my quiver that I can learn on while I improve. i am getting the hang of the toe turns but i am plagued by the 'toilet butt'..... i am wondering if a softer wider board might be right for now? any suggestions? Ebay currently has a Swoard 175 Extreme Carver for sale. http://cgi.ebay.com/SWOARD-ExtremeCarver-175-Soft-alpine-hardboot-snowboard_W0QQitemZ170297177552QQcmdZViewItemQQptZSnowboarding?hash=item170297177552&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50
my concern is that i weigh about 210 and am 6'1". with this being a soft board flex, am i going to overpower it?? the Swoard website says i should be riding a stiff flex.
Any other board suggestions would be helpfull!!!!!!!!!!!! i ride in NY with relativly smaller hills and a fair bit of ice.....
