1. ^ your an idoit.

2. 5'5 is 167 cm. so you could really go with a 159 or the 169. If your a really agressive skier, and plan to use these skis for the next couple season and are still growing the 169 is the way to go.

3. If you decided to get the Rossi soft boot, make sure you get the high end one... the rossi soft 2? Don;t get the shitty one, it's made for beginner skiers. Brand of boots doesn't matter so much as fit. Fit is the most important, jib specific boats is usually just a tad softer, so don;t go hop into a race boot, you'll kill your shins if you do alot of park.

4. Go for the look p10 / rossi axial 10 type of bindings.

I'm 5'5 and 130 pounds, and i rode 171's last season just fine, i actually want to move up. So i would suggest the 169 or even higher.

im 5' 6" and I ski 180s. 159 is soooo short for you. get them as tall as you are or a little above your head.

because I like poop.

I love when people say if your not experience get these, if your experienced get these.

beginner is something no one wants to call themselves.

I know that if I was buying a parachute and I had two choices. one said begginer and the other said expert I would get the expert one. haha

^And, what if you had never parachuted, and the expert was much harder to handle.

Very true, but ifi knew the beginer parachute would maximize my fun i would get that. Besides if you give him both options he dosen't necessarily have to post his skill level, thus saving face.
