I bought them in 171's and i think/hope they are the right size.
I am about 125-130 lbs. (somewhere around there)

You'll be fine man. I still ride on my original park skis, Salomon 1080s, which are 171, and I'm 5'11 and 185! Don't worry about it, you could've gone either way. Good choice, IMO

Yes it's good, but it will maybe be a little bit small.
It's always better to take the skis bigger than one.
Excuse me for my english, i'm french.

uhm prolly a lil bigger, wats the next size up, u should get 177's or somethin. but if ur not comfortable with a big ski, it might take control of u so maybe 172 is alright
