Which ski?? In general, I think 165 is too long. Depending on the ski, 158-162 might be better. If you are skiing this primarilly on the groomed, then go short. I am 175, 6' I think folks here may say I am a little agrressive and I ski on 170-172's for my front siders. Gary is about his size and skis on 165's.

Edited by JimR to answer Ron's question about which ski.? The ski he is considering and demoed is the Contact 9; really liked the ski but doesn't remember or didn't note the length.
