No offense, but if you have indeed been skiing for 11 years, you'd probably have somewhat of an idea of the proper size for you. No one here knows your abilities on the mountain like you do, maybe some more information could help.

i know this but i have only been using twin tip skis for about 2 years and some people say that you should use longer skis.

and what condidtions do you ride on, and what is your skiing level.

If you've been skiing for 11 years I'm sure you can figure it out.

And the length of the twins depends on what you ride.
If your riding pow on a 131 you're fucked.

He's only 125lbs dude. And he's 5'5"...
I would say more along the lines of... 161-176, depending on your level of skiing. If you ski mostly park, stick to the lower end of my scale, if you ski a lot of powder and big mountain, go for the higher end.
