Either ski would give you a decently good set-up. And for either ski, I would look at something like the 178 for some backcountry. The more float the better, and I think someone your size should be able to drive them around. The added length in the park will also be nice, since you have a more stable base for landings, and more ski to gain speed. As for a backcountry binding, look at Dukes/Barons, which are heavy, but you can't beat the downhill performance that you get out of them, making it a truly all mountain set-up.
