Ok im 16 years old and I'm 5'11.5' tall. Im looking at the New AR5's in the 180's . im thinking this should be a good size for my to ride. But my question is how different is it to ride skis that are maybe and inch or so taller than you. I rode 171 all last season but i was like 5'10 then. Also i mainly ride park too.

^Big Jump, haha I remember a few years ago I went from 138 to 160, and man, that was sweet. If you were dependent on a certain size for one aspect of skiing, you might notice the change a little more, but for the most part, going longer won't effect your skiing too much, and I think it helps in the park.
