Hight....weight.....what you are skiing.....they are 2 completely different skis. And I would not recommend them to anyone since they are such a love/hate ski.

Well. If you're looking for a fuck-around urban/backyard ski, abangs. If you want a solid park ski that you'll feel confident and sexy with, spend the extra money

161 is like 5'2''. Thats way too short. Go 174 unless your old and not growing anymore.
174 will be great especially if your growing still.
If you really, really like short park skis go 167. Nothing smaller than that though.
I think you would like the 174 better though. 174 is 5'7'' so right at your forehead.

scratches used to be the most durable ski ever made....the new one skis great. rossi puts a layer of rubber tip n tail... the rep ik always puts the ski top down and stomps the tip flat. they been puttin it in for years...it seems to work
