Hey Im looking at buying some K2 Fujatives. I am 5 ' 7 and 130 lbs. Would 169 be too short for me? Im not gonna get the 179. I hear k2s sizes are smaller than they actually are.
would 169 be good or should i find another ski

a 169 is gonna feel a little small but i know tons of people about your size/weight who ride them so i'd say go for it and if you dont get that try a 174 scratch fs

It depends upon how much park your going to do and what other kind of riding your going to do if any. If you want an all park ski then I would say the 169 Fugative should be fine but if you do ski other stuff look into some other skis. Foils, scratches, sprayers.
