depends what ur wannting to ski... and what ski's you want. If you can try them out in differant sizes if not go bigger! it's gonna be so much better for you skiin... whatever ne1 sez short skis don't help your jumping... and for sure they don't help your skiing outside the park

get them taller than you or die. 160s are great.. for amputees.
