Which Skis should i buy?
So I want to get into park/freestyle skiing and i have a couple options on what to choose. I used to ski when i was younger and got down the black diamond slope 1 time. I am 16 years old, 171 cm tall (like 5'7", and about 125 - 130 lb. I found a bunch of deals on evo.com and ski.com, on evo found k2 recoil skis 2012 ($275), Nordica Hot Rod 6.5 Ski Boots 2012 ($140), and Marker 12.0 Free Ski Bindings (90mm Brake) 2010 ($123). Or should i go with Salomon Z 11 Wide Brake Ski Bindings 2012 ($99) from skis.com. Will 90mm bindings fit for the skis? Should I go with 164 cm skis or 169 cm skis? I am growing really fast. Everything especially the skis are really good prices. My uncle in Poland found used rossignol s2 park 09/10 skis (170cm) with bindings. He said he will sell me them for about $150 plus shipping, so lets say about $200 for the used skis and bindings. What do you think i should buy? Or tell me if there are any better skis/deals that would fit me? I think i should but the k2 skis, but my chose is a lot more expensive.

PLEASE HELP
UPDATE: My uncle in Poland can't ship the skis to america because they are too 20cm too long, so that option is now gone. So just answer what bindings are better, size of bindings needed for the skis, lengh of skis good for me, or any other cheap good deals. Thanks.
