actully it kinda does. You always start begginers out on real small skis cuz they are way easier to turn. Back in the day it was even more so.

but someone with short skis can still smoke someone else in tricks and skill who rides like 189s. its just personal preference. plus shorter skis are more fun for backcountry and tree skiing because they're shorter and can turn faster, which allows you to pick harder lines than you could with longer skis. so once you are at the level that you can ski black diamonds or do good tricks in the park, then ski length doesnt really reflect skill at all

Ski length represents your height and weight rather than your ability.
