Go 177.

I was 5'9 135ish when I got my afterbangs last year. I got 177s and couldn't be happier. The longer length will give you more stability on jumps and rails. Plus it's a soft ski that you can easily control.

im a little taller and heavier and i have 166 but i think they are better for quick spins on and off rails and on kickers but i havent hit any big jumps this season with them.  if you want to hit more rails go 166, if you want to hit jumps go with the 177
