So I am interested in buying FR's and I found a pair for pretty cheap. Only problem is that I was looking for a 176, and these are 171. Currently, I am 5'7", but I would be buying these for next year and I am still growing. If I had to guess my height for next season I'd say 5'9" or 5'10". Now, I know ON3P runs a little long compared to other companies because they measure after pressing, but also feel shorter than they are because of the rocker. Do you think 171 would be too short? Thanks.
 
Im 6' and i ride a 171 volkl ledge and the length feels perfect. They have tip and tail rocket too.

The filthies have a lot of rocker tho so the ski shorter than they are I would try to find something longer op

I would almost point you to a 181 with that projection. 176 for sure.

I think I'm gonna make the smart decision and go with 176. Might have to pass up a great deal, but the extra length will save me from buying another pair sooner. Thanks for all the replies
 
Im 5'9 150 right now just got a pair of Kartels 176 they are unbelievable. I was on 169 k2 recoils and i thought they felt big for the first day and i was worried but you get used to them after a day or two and they are so fun I cant say enough good things about them on all aspects of the mountain park and groomers
