If you are a good rider and plan on keeping these skis for a while, get the 166. But having too long of skis can be tough to handle. I'm 160-170 depending on the week, I'm gonna get 182s

176. DONT GO SHORTER simply because in 5-6 months a shorter ski will be too small and you will have to buy more. This happened to me and I have a sweet pair of skis that are too small for me. You will get used to longer skis in a couple of hours. 176 all the way

176. if you are going to grow, any other size will end up being too short in a couple of months

Yeah, I don't know about assasins. 170 4frnts... now there's a good plan. Or, Scratches in 168.
