I Am 5'9" 150lbs. i was riding lizzies which are 172cm however they just broke. Before that I was on 178 center mounted anthems. Would 181 salomon suspects be too big for me? I would prob mount them a few cm forward.

Um...good luck skiing pow on Suspects.

But no, 181 is not too long for you, especially for park/groomers. They'll seem long at first but longer skis is much better....imo
