im like 5,7 but my suspect were 171 and i want to spin more fast and get faster turns in jibing....should i go with 161 cm?=

thanks k +
 
well pro pipes are a lot lighter than suspects, due to the half sidewall. I'd probably just stay with the 171s. You would grow out of the 161s in 5 seconds
 
Where you mount them has way more to do than the length when spinning. An even swing weight is what matters. Don't mean to claim here, but I used to ride 155s a couple years back mounted at 6cm back and could only spin at most a really ugly 5 on them no matter how hard I tried. The following year, I got 170cm S3s mounted at near center and within a few days skiing the park, I was able to throw tens fluidly. The ski length did not affect me much, but the mounting position did. For reference, I'm 5'7" 130lbs.
