I am 65 years old - upper intermediate/ low level expert, 200 lbs, 6feet ski mainly New England and France. I need a pair of all mountain skis suitable for crud and hard pack. occasional heavy powder. Have been looking at Volkl Bridge and am tempted by shortest length for manouverability and travel convenience. Do you have any advice?

You are going to need at least the 177cm ski, if not the 185cm. For hardpack, you want as much edge as you can, and you can have a longer ski at your size. For crud, you will need the stability to smash through and not get bucked, and for powder, you will really appreciate the float of the longer ski so you don't get tired out earlier in the day.
