umm....ZERO you bough the skis from a shop not from HEAD...

go to your shop and deal with them...ski companies are highly unlikely to deal with size problems...thats the customers fault not theirs

why sweat it? Some people like skiblades. Don't change out skis just because people say longer is better, even though it is, it's not for everyone.

YEa 172s arent too small for 5 10 at least not worth the hassle of trying to get a new set and wasting all the energy for 5 or 10 cms.

Skiing isn't a matter of life and death. It's much more important than that!'

I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just gonna ask where they're going and hook up with 'em later"

If oyu using them for mostly park, I wouldn't sweat it to much about the size. The width makes up for some of the size.

You guys are lucky you can find stuff to fit you. Im 6'3" and so I need the higher end of 180s to fit me. So good luck finding park skis that long. Also I have a size 33 mondo boot. every ski looks like a skiboard on me haha. Damn feet

Haha no they dont. I gotta squeeze my feet into 32s or so. The salomon verse the old black ones with the pull strap. They run big so it fits. But its the only boot haha.
