07 k2 seth inquiry

[D-SPINAH]

So im thinking of getting some for ripping pow hitting small cliffs and bc kickers and what not but i also what to be comfortable on groomers. Im about 5'6 maybe 5'7 seven and between 165-170 pounds. Would the 179's be to long for me? Would it just take some getting used to or would it be no prob? I do like the colour of the 169s better but im thinkin that may be a lil short for what i want. Also ive heard that K2's actually measure a little longer then marked or somethign and thats part of the reason im havin doubts.. any thoughts?

Oh ya and i also do a fair bit of skiing in the trees so would i have a harder time with longer skis?

Get the 179s. At your weight they will be fine.

Yeah 169s would be great for you, i might be selling my 169cm 07-08 seths to a friend whos basically the same size as you and they come up to the top of his forehead. Unless you're really charging lines and arent hitting up the park or glades, then 169 is the way to go.

By the way i dont think you'll find too many BRAND NEW pairs of 169cm seths for sale, so if you're interested make me an offer.
