By Ranked #292 - All Mountain Skis September 2, 2009

Write your question here...I am 5'11", weigh 170 lbs. and ski about 30 days a year in Colorado. I mix the front steep and bumps with the back side trees and any powder that I can find. Would you recommend this in 170 or 177 for me? Thanks

184's - I am your exact size and the 177's won't be long enough in the deep.

I'm and advanced skier and was out 39 times last season. I bought some Mantras last spring (to compliment my Volkl AC4's also in 170) in the 170. I'm 5' 10" and 195 and ski mostly at Mt. Baker Washington. These skis are great for all of the mountain. I carry a GPS so I know they are great at 45+mph on groomers, great in 12/18" of powder (probably not as light as Colorado powder) and fast and quick thru the trees. I put Marker Griffons on them and am really pleased with the setup.

177 without a doubt.
