Those are way way too small. You'll want something closer to a 180, I would say that 178 is too small too.

Yeah those are way to small. If you weigh 180, i would go way higher. And since you center mount these, they will look way small in general.

i was 510 135 and riding on 169's if that helps. dont worry about it, if you can trade them in trade them in but if you cant, just ski them one year and buy new ones next year. they were free anyways
