Hi...looking at getting Salomon foils - don't know whether to spring for the 166 or the 174's. I'm 5'7" 145 - 150 lbs. I ski aggressive 50/50 park and all mountain. Any thoughts?

I am your height but about 30 pounds lighter and 174 are sick for me. I'm not heavy enough to butter them so they would be super good for you

174, they will be way more stable in the park, especially switch landings, and more stable at high speed all mountain.
