Are you still growing? If so I'd go with the 176 since Armadas are too expensive to replace after one or two seasons. Otherwise it depends on your skiing preferances. If you ski mostly park I'd go with the 170s but if you like to divide your time between park and all mtn, I'd go 176.

Dude you dont need to know his height and feet and inches. You know can tell from his centimeter height measurement how much taller or shorter the skis are than him. But just for you, I'm 5'9 and im about 176 centimeters, just from measuring myself up against my 180 cm skis.

I can't believe you people can't understand the metric system. It's the UNIVERSAL system of measurement. Man, I can't believe what they teach Americans in school, like, damn.

actually, you should think before you type that. It's standard in every american public school to learn the metric system. So we learn both, but the fuckin stoner fucks who don't really know how to do anything can't figure it out and forget about it because it's not our main measuring sysatem. So don't be such an ignorant fuck about it
