Hey, I am 20 years old.. 5'10 140...ive been skiing on 166 salmon foils for the past few years...I want the S7, but cant decide if the 176 or 188 would be a better fit. I know I could probably ski either, but I want this ski to be a one quiver ski...one that I can ski on groomers and in the back country. I like to have my ski be very responsive. Ive been leaning toward the 176. Any one have any suggestions?

Do the 188. I'm 5'10" and 150 and went with the 188. Best choice of my life. Since there is real camber underneath the ski and the tips and tails follow a reverse camber layout the ski skis much shorter on the groomers and you use the extra in the pow. Trust me. You want the 188.

the 176 would be a great ski for you. because of the "upturned mustache" shape you would still be able to get some turns on groomers on these guys. if you do a lot of skiing in the park though or live somewhere where there isnt a lot of snow all the time the s3 has the same shape and it a bit smaller underfoot

if you are skiing on the 166 then i think you are on the right tract -- go with the 176. it will be a good match.
