K2 Domain Size question

I want to get the K2 Domain but can't decide if the 174cm would be too tall, should I get the 169cm? I know K2 runs their sizes big because they don't include tip or tail. I am 5'8" and weigh about 130lb. Advanced skier, mostly park but also some backcountry. Thanks

Get the 174 for sure. You could even go 179 being and advanced skier. The rad aspect of Jib Rocker is how quickly you can pivot the skis or transition edge to edge. Fun stuff! Enjoy those sticks!

I'm your size and weight and rode the 174 for most of last season, I would go for those unless you're going to hit big jumps, in which case get the 179.

thanks, so defiantly not the 169cm? I found last years domains in the 174cm for about $100 cheaper so I will probably go with those unless there is a big difference with the 2014 model.
