You made this exact same thread, so this doesn't even deserve a response. But anyway, the answer to your question is YES IT IS FINE. I'm 5'7" and have skis that are 170, 183, and 186. 186 is about 16 cm taller than me. 5'2" = 157 cm, so that's only a 7 cm difference. Whether or not that is good or bad depends on ability.
