Last year I switched to skiing after more than 15 years snowboarding. Would this be a good ski for a convert? Also, what size is appropriate? I am 6'1" 190lbs. I want something that I can grow with over a few seasons as i improve, but don't want to be too frustrated in the mean time.

This is a good all mountain ski for various conditions. It will do fine in powder and will shred all over the mountain; it will do nicely at high speeds too. If you are looking for a non-twin tip all mountain ski quiver of one this would be a good possible choice. As for what size, considering your height and that you are fairly new to skiing, I would go with the 178. Hope this helps.
