177 Afterbangs would be perfect for you - I'm around your height and they are super fun. They're pretty soft, so you'll be able to play around the mountain, but the longer length will help you land big jumps. Enjoy.

Are you looking for a completely symmetrical ski, like the Afterbang?  If so, they are pretty sweet.  If you are looking for something with a "normal" sidecut, check out the AR6.  Or if you are gonna buy next year wait for the AR7.  That ski is going to be fucking killer.
