177 seems like a safe park length. 185 at your height might start to slightly get in the way in the park for rails and swing weight.

177 if you like to spin and flip. 185 if you don't mind the added swing weight and want more stability at speed outside the park.

Yeah, definitely 177 at your height, but at your weight look for stiffer park skis
