they wont affect your riding but they might feel long. you could always cut them down but use them as they are now and then deciede after you ride with them a bit

They won't affect your park riding if you don't use them! And you will never go home with a black eye landing switch. It might even make you a better skier!

personally I could not ride park very well with that long of poles. (Im 6 foot and use 42 cm poles.) I would recommend cutting them down to like 36 cm, or just ditch them when you go in the park. Short poles are really better all around. Better for park, bumps, etc... they help you keep your weight forward.
