I'm 5'8 and 185 lbs should move up to the 177cm ? Also how much less poppy are they than the anthem that I skied last year..? Any comments would help..

I own anthems, and I'd say afterbangs are more snappy, and a little stiffer. Anthems are just soft and buttery. And DEFINITELY get 177's. 166 is TINY.

i can't attest to skiing on last years anthem, but as far as sizing, you could go with either 166 or 177. 177 will have more speed, but for your height, will be harder to control. 166 you'll definitely whip around. think about your riding style. if you're going big, go with bigger sticks.
