I have no idea how accurate this is, but food for thought... this is a chart with recommendations for length of ski based on weight. As Trekchick will say, a ski doesn't know how tall you are...only your weight. But based on the info you've given, I think 160 is too short.

It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere. ~ Agnes Repplier

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever. ~ Lance Armstrong
