I'm thinking about getting these, but I'm not sure if they'll be to big.I'm about 5'9 and fairly light right now, but i wouldn't use them till next year and i assume i'll be around 5'11 and about twenty pounds heavier. i ski tons of pow and like to drop cliffs and stuff

I just got a pair of these. I would say they ski very true to their size. At this point they might be just a touch big for you, but if you're still growing they won't be for long. They are a pretty money ski and can really handle it all. As far as traditional camber, traditional sidecut powder oriented skis, I would say this is one of the best out there.These skis are very easy to ski, one of the best turning fat skis out there and i feel they ski short because of the early taper, i'm 5'-7" and have them at +2 from reccomended, you won't have any problem with them, if your that light go + 3 or 4 from rec. and have a blast. they only measure out at about 179mm.
