i bought a pair of 159s last year when i was 5'1" adn liked them alot. now im 5'6" and im gettin 167. moral of the story is short skis=gay and unstable
who the fuck cares how skis look. style doesn't matter to us random shmucks unless you're on the verge of becoming a pro. ski however the fuck you're comfortable skiing
I am 6' and i used to rock 1080 vinny d's in 169. They looked pretty good.....but a little too short. I got my Armada AR5s in a 176 and they looked perfect. I kept getting compliments and stuff. I think for them to look good they schould be close to your height.
