Size help

So I finally decided on the little brother of te volkl walls, the ledges. They have them in size 148 and 155. I'm having a Dillema because I am a 3+ skier, but I'm pretty light for my height. I'm 5'3 and 120 pounds. Should I go a little shorter or a little longer? They're rocker-camber-rocker and I'm used to skiing shorter skis.
 
155. go longer with rocker skis. Plus you'll be able to get more use out of them as you get taller
 
Go with at least the 163. I would even recommend the 171 because of you being an aggressive skier and the rocker on them. I am only slightly taller than you and I weigh less than you but I ride 177s in pow and would ride at least ~166ish in the park.
 
155, they'll ski shorter because of the rocker, don't be afraid of sizing up.
 
Not really. I am a really small guy (5'5, 110 lbs) and I appreciate the extra stability from a longer ski. If she really is a 3+ skier, then she should handle them fine, especially with the rocker making them ski shorter.

They may be a bit unusual at first, but she would get used to them just fine.
 
I'm 5'2 130lbs I ride 169 Hellbents as my pow ski (measures more like 173) 160ishcm in length feels about right to me in the park. I tried riding some 150cm skis and they felt waaay too short. I can even get my hellbent's to do park if I feel like working hard and have successfully ridden 180cm rocker skis without any trouble. If you really are riding as hard as you say I would aim for the larger skis.
