Hello guys.

Here is winter in New Zealand. Im planing to buy an Armada AR7 ski for this winter.Im at intermediate to advanced level. but in NZ they sold out 166 height AR7. Im 165 barefoot and 64KG naked, should I get 161MM AR7 or 171MM AR7? I play 60% all mountain 40% park, like some jumps. thanks for all answer my question

also there is one more option which is APO SAMMY CARLSON PRO in 166CM. so do I choose APO SAMMY C PRO 166CM or ARMADA AR7 161CM?

If you're a good skier I would go for 171, generally you want twin tips to be your height or a little bit longer not shorter.

get the 171, it's only two inches not a big deal.
It will be more stable on jumps and you wont feel it after first day.
I got 171 when i was 163 long. If you are going to grow even few cm go for the 171!

I'd do 171. I would much rather have skis too tall than too short. Don't want to look like your skiing blades.
