Hey. I'm 13,115 pounds,5'6',a good skier (I guess). Right now I'm on 156 Dyastar snaps, and they are definately too short. I'm debating between 160-175. Tell me what you think.
These things make me mad.

i'm 120, 5'4, and 15, i ride a 171 which is SLIGHTLY too big. For you i'd say anything in the 164-171 range, between chin and forehead...but remember ur thirteen and just learning what spooge is...you r gonna grow man, think ahead, that is why i got bigger skis

175, you will be happy. longer skis are so much nicer for landing and riding switch. if you think you won't be able to spin fast, you shouldn't worry about that because if you have to worry about that it will probably look shitty. go big.

man go with a 180, if your 13 you can expect to grow a foot this summer.
