hey guys know this belongs in the gear threads but i was hoping for some quick advice. Im getting a pair of on3p blue steels and i've never had a pair of rockered park skis before. I typically ski my park skis between 170-175 cm and am wondering if i should get the 171 because thats the size im used to or the 181 because they will prob feel more similar because i understand with rockered skis there is less effective edge. the 171 ski has like 142 of eff. edge and the 181 has like 152... what you guys think im 5'9" and about 165. ++++++++KARMA++++++++
