Question: I'm a 5"5, 116 pound female who is a moderately aggressive skier, looking at 168cm skis. What do you guys think - too long? Thanks!

Short turns vs. long turns? Bumps/trees vs. screaming open fields/groomers? 168-169cm would probably be a good length if you lean towards the more open turn/terrain. Go shorter if you want something quick-quick-quick.
