Hey guys, i ride a 169 volkl wall but i'm 5'11. I've been told this is too short and that a taller ski would be better for my type of skiing. I'm a east coast skier and i ski park basically all day err'day unless i get to hit pow at some bigger mountains. Im looking at 2013 Moment Jibs 176 or 181 and Majesty Rock n Rollas 177. Any help would be just awsome! :)
-one love,

I'm your height and a solid intermediate skier. I'm perefectly comfortable on 175-179's. Kinda in the same boat as you but thinking about sizing up for some powder skis.

Everyone will chime in with a shorter height and longer ski comparison. Point is, demo some longer length skis if you can to see what your comfortable with.

Different strokes for different folks.
