I'm the same size and I ski the 181's in last years ski. I love them and defenitely wouldn't ski any shorter. Adding rocker should also help some. I say go for the 181 and they won't disappoint!!!

Personally, unless you happen to like your skis on the short side, I would say go with the 181's. You will get good float in the pow and stability with speeds. It'll be good for the backcountry too.
