Considering purchasing the '09 version of these skis. I'm 5'8 and 180lbs, intermediate skier that ventures out West every year for a week of skiing. Right now I own an old set of Atomic Beta 9.22 170cm and am thinking of moving up to the AC30 but these are 163cm. Would this be an improvement even though the skis are shorter?

While this is a good ski, and would be an "improvement" ski to ski based on what you want, I would be concerned that 163 would be too short. While a very stable ski, at that length it could be squirrelly for you.
