How much did a new ski size affect your spinning?

I'm about 5'6", 135 lbs. and I currently have 151 AR3's. I'm most definitely getting new skis, most likely 175 ARV's. But my question to you is how much of a size increase have you had and how did it affect your spinning? I can get 5's easily on a 15 foot jump but I want to know if I won't be able to spin that much with bigger skis, or if it will just take time to get used to. Thanks.

it takes like a week to get used to it, but your skis are tiny, and you definatly need those bigger ones, so it will just take some time. you'll still be able to spin tho

i went from 168 scratches to 175 arvs and it just took a little getting used to for me. my biggest problem was that the arvs were much fatter then my old ones so i spent much of my first runs gettin the tips crossed.but im fine now with spinning
