your 165lbs so definately 178. This ski seems shorter as its so soft and @ centre.

Yeah, but everyone knows that it ain't steezy unless your skis are taller than you, just look at T-money, you gotta have skis that are taller than you to throw down.

yeah rock the 178s because its better to have that extra length if you ever need to take it outta the park, plus tricks are just so much sicker with the longer stix
