I'm 5'4" 130, and I just made the pickup of the Pandoras in a 172. I am STILL debating whether I should have gotten the 162 or 172. I'm a pretty aggressive skier, I do most of my skiing in the trees at The Bird on powder days or in Tahoe or the NW on a good powder day. I want to try and ski more in the fall line this year, but I also want something that will be quick in the trees. Most recently I've skied on the Volkl Karma in a 161. What do you think... Pandora in a 162 or 172?

the slight rocker will help to make them ski a bit shorter so i think you'll be set with the 172's. I'm 5'6" and 135 and I picked up a pair of the 172's as well but wished they came in a slightly longer size! I think the 172's will be great for you go pandora power!

The Pandora is a lot of ski, but I think that you can handle that 172. It will feel different for sure in the tighter trees, but fall line and deep snow you will appreciate the stability that you can get from them. You will probably have to adjust a bit of your style, and ski more aggressively, but I think that these really are the next step for female skiers, who really want to progress. And that size will step up your game for sure.
