i'm 5'8 and 120-130 pounds i have no idea what size to get because the size chart reccomends either the 171 or the 161's and i've been told to get the 161's, 171's or the 178's by different people so what size would you reccomend?

im 5'10" 135 and i have the 178, id say either the 171 or 178 depending on if you like tall or short skis. but since they are centermounted they will feel smaller. i'd choose the 178

when you center mount your skis, it's going to feel a lot shorter than the usual mounting. i'd go for the 171, they'll feel good for you.
