178 should be fine, I would even consider bigger as I'm 5'8 and I myself ride 173 punx, also rocker is also to be considered as a rockered ski will ride much shorter

If youre an intermediate rider I wouldnt suggest going too far past 170cm. I would stick around the ski size you have now and then get a bigger ski once you start to get more aggressive. Yeah a bigger ski is more stable, but it takes a lot more effort to huck around and maneuver.
