Having the same dilema as the Robsta... Haven't skied any...

Having the same dilema as the Robsta...
Haven't skied any thing over 190 for a long time. I am currently on a pair of 07/08 Hombres and love how stiff and stable they are. Whores say Justice has soft tail.
I'm 6 foot 205lbs and like to ski agressive. Should I go with the 182 or 192? I will be doind alot of tree skiing? How do the 192s do in tight places? Would the 182s be enough skis for the deep days.. Ski at Mary Jane, Berthoud, Cameron Pass area, steamboat and other north central areas of CO...
Thanks,

The 192's actually do quite well in the tighter trees, considering the size. But I like to ski longer, even in those conditions. If you feel comfortable on a shorter ski, then the 182 will not hold you back.
