Need some quick help, been looking around. I'm 180cm (5.11') 62.3kg (137pounds) and i am a advanced skier. I have just got into park skiing and its sick.

I currently have 174cm K2 Recoil skis, i can exchange them for 169cm, but im stuck, because 169cm would be easy to spin, easy on rails ect.. but it would have a bad landing. I think the 174cm would be perfect but i have that doubt and i want to be 100% they are right before i take them on the slope and then being unable to exchanged.

Any advice would be great?

thanks
 
Keep them, honestly, 174 is actually slightly too short for you, a 169 would be tiny. You'll get used to the size with no problem, they'll be fine spinning. Also, remember that with the rocker, they'll ski a bit shorter, so you definitely don't want to go to short.
