Adult using youth skis??

I recently ordered Surface Next Time skis at the 145cm length... did I choose the correct length?

I am a beginner but I'm progressing pretty quickly, the beginner slopes

are getting pretty easy and I've been skiing twice in my whole life.

The thing is that these are youth skis but I'm not a kid, I'm 19 haha.

I

weigh 122lbs and am 5'3 (unfortunately)... I chose 145cm because of the

whole height thing and the height of it is just around my nose. And I

found that a lot of the "adult" skis are too tall for me when sizing

using this height method.

I was reading a post and a guy said that adults should seldom be on kids

skis... but the problem is that I'm the size of a kid! Haha So just

want to know will these skis workout for me even though I'm not youth?? I

hope they well seeing that I already bought them!

And do I now have to get youth bindings as well? If so, do youth bindings fit Mens size boots?

Thanks for all the help!

Here are the skis:

well if you're not a troll...
then yeah that's fine dude...but you could go bigger...i'd prob go with something like 161cm make a much better ride....
 
I think that those skis are a bit too short for you, but you already bought them so there's not much you can do. Next time you should ask before buying.

And you don't have to and actually should not get kids bindings.
