Are 171cm skis to small for me?

[Twolf6]

I am 6'0 and 150 pounds are 171cm skis to small. I'd say I'm intermediate to advance in the park.

I wouldn't say too small.

Can be personal preference but imo that isn't too bad.

 

[radish]

170 will be pretty short. I'm 5'11" 150lb. and ride 180's for park. It really comes down to personal preference but I think a 178ish would suit you better

 

[RawrRawrRob]

I'm 6'1 on 169's

They're on the small side for your height, but you are pretty light for your height. I wouldn't go any smaller though.

 

[FerrisBueller]

if you want to poop on the lip of the jump go for it

 

[EasySteezy45]

those are too small, I am 5'8" 140 and I use 171's and sometimes I think they are too short.

 

[SloanKettering]

dude you need 201's or 301's

 

[Juicy-J]

id say 301s, can never be TOO safe

 

[Ryguy920]

I'm 5'6" and I use 155's. Fuck me right?

 

[Parrish]

I'm 6' and weight 135 and I'm on shitty 168's for park skis.

I got my pow skis at 186's though.

Get bigger if you want. But my friend who is similar to you had 171 line anthems and he was fine.

 

[tdollo]

im 5'1 and i ride 163

 

[Montana_Hoodrat]

bigger = more stable at speed, faster, and harder to wash out on jumpssmaller = lighter, faster spinning (for those future spins) and easier to butter or wash out.

that being said, i am 5'7'' and 150 lbs and i ride 172s

i like the stability on landings, and even on handrails. also if it starts to snow, and you left your pow skis at home, its nice to at least be able to still shred fresh snow. skis too short can be frustrating in even 2" of new.

 

[ButteredToast.]

Damn son, I'm 5'9" and ride 184 center mounted skis in the park.

them is short.

 

[WI_Personallty]

I'm 5'8 and ski 171s. I know they're too short for you.

 

[Aiden-P]

im 5'6 and use 169.

 

[NotGhood]

long skis look so stupid

get blades because swag

 

[Juicy-J]

second this

 

[Duck_Sauce]

I'm 5'11, 145lbs and I'm on 180s they are the perfect size so your range would be probably 176-182. honestly the longer the skis the more stable obviously but if you're into rails more stick with short

 

[joshua]

Absolutely too short.

 

[Granby_killdozer]

REAL GS ONLY SKI 200 PLUS!

 

[snakerton]

nah last year I was 5 11 and skied 168s

 

[Bittner]

im 5'10 and ski 182's. I have more control with a big ski i feel like,

 

[kevin_k]

I used to ride 171's and I'm pretty much the same body type. I'm much happier on 178s and if I was riding a more centered stance, or out west I'd want something in the 181-184 range.

 

[CalebT]

too short. i'm 5'8 and i have 172s.

 

[SKI.ING]

This. Too small, but managable. If you can still size up, I would.
