Personally i would go with This years 4rnt Stl or T Hall. You could find them both for real cheap prices if you look around.

fujis. line's shit isnt bad either. it depends on how much you want to spend. if you got cash, get t halls. demo some skis, try your friends, pick what you like.

im a little heavier than you and i'll be getting this years thalls in a 176. i was looking for a ski for almost completely park that is pretty soft, can do awsome butter, and that will be stable in the park. the biggest jump i'll be hitting daily will be around 40 feet probly and i know thalls could stand up to that. if you looking for what i was looking for i would also go for thalls. i hope my decision helped you.

i would say if your a beginner, a smaller ski will be easier to learn on but if your more advanced i think the 176 will be fine
