They should be fine for him. I wa riding a pair of 171 for a little while an I'm 5'11. They were a little small but actually ok. So with him being 9 inches shorter then me or 22.5cm it means that a 151 will be fine for him.

Should work ok. Depends on his ability and weight as well. If he is very good or is a fatty then maybe a size up would have been better.

steezy_dogeyes i noticed how i spelt that^^


If you noticed, why didn't you change it to something that made sense...?


They're slightly small, but for a first year park ski and for someone who doesn't weight that much, they'll be fine. They're only about 2 inches shorter than him.
