Looking to get another pair of Vice for next season and want to buy during sales this spring/summer. This season I rode a 168, but sites seem to be more often to be sold out of them, and Im growing. Right now I'm 5'7 120lbs, ski midwest/ice. Im not sure if I can handle the 178cm yet, but I'm afraid the 168 will get too small. Help me NS, whats the better choice?

If you're 5' 9" now then 178 should be a perfect fit

Especially with the early rise in the tip and tail, helps make a longer ski feel slightly shorter.
