I'm looking for a ski that will work good at the resort but also be good in the backcountry with some AT bindings. Thoughts on this ski? I'm 6'6" and 210lb

The 191 would probably be better for your height/weight for speed and powder, that said, depending on how aggressive a skier you are and if you prefer smaller radius turns to larger radius turns, and are a more agile/quick response skier vs. big mtn skier/big arcing, then the 182 might work well for you.

you think the 182 would be way to short?

This is a solid ski that will work great in versatile endeavors- on the resort, backcountry, hucking, tricks etc. The big mtn guys love this ski and so for your height/weight it should be just fine. It is considered an all-mountain freeride, and some folks love the twin tip in the backcountry. It performs well on hard pack as well as in flotation and glide through powder. In the right length, this ski should be a great fit for your diverse needs.
