Ok im in 7th grade 97lbs and about 160cm tall will skiing 170cm skis be hard, not fun or anything like that if i could get skis that size it would open up a whole new window for getting skis and will give me a ski that will stay with me for maybe 4 years or less, and my mom keeps saying skiing skis bigger than you is not fun... so is it really not fun?

keep the 160s if you are around a 100 pounds you will not be able to handle 170s

a 170 would prob float pretty good for you.

get the moment 171 reno jib.

its at 88 under foot so it should be bitching in the pow for you and killer in the park.
