I am 135 pounds, 5'10" and an advanced skier. i currently ski on 172 line blends but want a more backcountry/pow oriented ski as well. what size would be best for me seeing as i'm used to around 170 on a normal ski. also, i ski mainly resorts but would this ski work with an AT binding for short tours and resort accessed back country?

I wouldn't go up to the 188 for you, just because you are a lighter skier and don't need that extra float, so look at the 176. As for getting into the slackcountry, you could definitely do it with these skis, not the best at all for it, but not really a big deal. The best touring binding for it though would probably be the Duke or Baron, because they are made more for slackcountry with bigger skis.
