Concept Length

I am picking up a 03' Concept and trying to figure out what sixe I should be on.

5'7', 175lb, very stong legs, I do the whole mountain, but love to do tricks.

I am debating between the 165 (which I feel will be too short) and the 178 (which might be too long) ???

Thanks

the 165 concept is long, more like a 169 because of the way it is measured. You could ride the 165 pretty well.

165 would be ok just for park, but if you wanna ski the whole mtn i'd say go with the 178

i jus got the 178s, or 180s same thing, and they are sick, and id say deff get them. as for size id say either one would probably work just as good as the other, if your still growin, id say 178s, but if not i guess its a toss up. was an easy decision for me, being 6ft 165

Go with the 178's You'll grow into them, their fine for jibbing if your a little small dont worry about it, the 165's are ugly as hell
