Hey So I am 5 foot 7ish. I weigh like 165 lbs. Would 184 cm skis be too big? right now i ride 171s. The new skis would be Liberty C-notes and would only use them for pow days. Should i do it or not?
 
I'd say they're a bit long but I guess if you like longer skis you could go for it. I ride 177 for my powder/charging skis.
 
If you're only gonna use them for pow days i'd go a little bigger than a 100 mm waist...As for your question though, 184 really isn't huuge, it might be a little big but I weigh less than you and ride 179 Line Prophets and I feel like I could go significantly bigger.
 
100 would be fine for you anywhere, you're pretty small... my friend has those skis and likes them a lot, I've never ridden them but if you think you can handle them id say go for it.
 
I used 186s on a pow day and I was fine and I'm the exact same size as you, I'd say go for it, but use a bigger waist like dude said above.
 
5'7'' and you weigh 165? You're pretty stocky, and weight is more important than height, so I think those will be perfect. They might even be small if they're strictly pow skis. I weigh 150 and I ride 185's and they're my all mountain skis. I'm getting 191 supermojos next season.
