Are 179 cm K2 Sights too small for 6ft?

Hello. I currently have the opportunity to get 2018/19 K2 Sights for a really good price. I am 6ft tall 220lbs. Do you think these skis would be too short for me?

They might feel a bit short, but you'll manage especially if you're mostly skiing park. Are they Silencers, or sights? Most park skis top out around 185 cm anyway, which really isn't much longer.

They are sights. Sorry. Do you think it would be a big improvement from 172cm Volkl skis?

idk anything about the Sights, but that sounds pretty good yeah. k2s tend to run long (that is, their 179cm is probably actually more like 182ish) and tend to be decently stiff so i think that sounds good for you
