I'm 5'7 and not gonna grow anymore. Do I try a little longer ski or do I stick with 171.

For park I would say 171, depends if you're gonna be sending some big jumps too or just jibbing.. bigger for speed and jumps, smaller for tech jibbing and whatnot.

What's your weight? I'm 5'8" and 150 and got 176 Punx at the end of last season. Are the skis you're getting rockered or cambered?

A full camber park ski 171 should be ok. But if there is some tip and tail rocker I'd go for 176-180 range.
