I want to buy some K2 Kung Fujas. I need to know if 189 is way to big for me, or if it's fine?

I'm 5'9".

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Depends on your weight, ability and your intended use, but i think you could pull them off. Are you still growing?

I could manage it... but It bothers me to take a risk.

Yeah, that would definitely be a little long.

I am 6 foot 5 inches 250 lbs and ski them for same stuff you do. Charge pretty hard. The length is a little short for me and very soft but I don't think they would be enjoyable for someone your size.

True. Thanks for the input. It's always reassuring to get feedback of somebody who has experience with the problem.
