Yeah...you should definitely get longer skis. I'm 5'6'' and I ski 175s and i feel like they're the perfect size. So yeah...definitely go with something that's at least your height.

Are your eyes closed most of the time, or does it just seem that way?
I'll repeat myself.
172cm length is by no means TOO short. It's not th optimal length for all-mountain performance, but it hardly warrants begging for money and hoping you can buy new skis to gain a few cm's that you really will not notice.
