how tall are you?
if your from 5'5 or under get the 169 1080's and if your taller get the 180 candides.... just my opinion.
i also like my lines and have heard good things about the volkl v's

165 concepts are cool and 171 1080s . . . you're a girl so you're probably not huge

i rode the new 1080s (171) last week and really liked them. i was thinking about going for the 161s though, i think it would make everything a bit easier coming off of the 171s. i just htough someone would have a good comparison against the 1080s though...
