yeah, it totaly depends on your skill level, but based on your weight and height i would say 160-170, if you wanna ride park.

definitly around a 160 anything bigger would be hard for u..im like 5"7'-5"8' and 170s are exactly as tall as i am so if u got a 170 it will be huge and over take u if ur not a good skiier.
