probably 171s, because they will be easier to control and would be alot more playful. You probably could manage a 181, but it would be a pretty huge step up

go for the 181s man, im 5' 10 and just purchased that length, keep in mind they ski a lot shorter cuz of the rocker, and you dont want 171s cuz the contact length is gonna be short and give you all sorts of troubles on landings..... keep in mind you will grow and these skis are super durable so you will have them for a long time.

also if you are buying them buy off moment skis directly they are on sale for 300 right now
