Write your question here...I live near Tahoe and ski a lot; I'm a big guy - 6'2" and 225 lbs - been skiing all my life and spend most of my time in the trees. But I'm no hotshot anymore...I'm 57...my wife bought me the 185 cm for my birthday 'cause that was as long as they come. Will this ski be enough for me, size-wise, etc??

YES, this will be a FUN ski, it will be quick and snappy, super responsive, and a jack of all trades. if you want a ski with a longer radius turn and a little stiffer look at the Verdict. but don't worry about the size, 185 will be plenty of ski for you.
