176, but if he's just starting, 171's really aren't that bad for his size.

Being comfortable on your skis is more important then having the prescribed length.

im 5"10, and find low 180s perfectly fine for park, if not a lil short. if they are stiff, you can get away a lil shorter, but if they are light and soft, id rather have 186-7s
