Default Is this snowboard too long for me?

I just picked up an Avalanche Super Bump snowboard from a good
friend. I measured the snowboard from tip to tip (I didn't follow
the contour to the tips, just eyed it and measured it from tip to tip)
and it measured 67 inches or 170 cm.

I am 5"8' and weigh 180 lbs. Is this board too big for me? I am a
beginner snowboarder. I remember reading the snowboard length should
reach chin or mouth level. This board is slightly over my eye level.

Also, anyone know anything about the board I just bought?
