I am 5'5" and 125lbs (130-135 with equipment) and I ski the 156. The 149 was too short for me. I ski in the east (catskills). @wul100486098: These are not parabolic skis. They are shaped skis (or just skis). Parabolic skis were the transition between straight and shaped skis that were made about 10-12 years ago. Now they are just called skis. And you can skate in them. I can skate in them on flats and up slight hills.

I'm 5'3 3/4" and weigh 115. I'm a Type III skier, mostly in N. CA, but occasionally in Utah or CO. I just skied on my new 149cm Burnin' Luvs and they were AWESOME! One thing I noticed was that you can't skate up a hill or on a flat in these new parabolic skis. Be prepared to jump a bit!

That's really hard to decide on without some more info. Two things you need to factor in are what is your skiing ability and also what part of the country are you skiing in mostly? If you're out west and in softer snow more often than hard snow then you'd probably want to size up while in the east you're going to want to have a short ski generally. From your height/weight, you're probably going to want to be in the 156cm if you're more of a casual/intermediate skiier while the 163cm would be good if you're more of an advanced/expert skiier.
