I'm 5-7 and about 150lbs. i'm trying to figure out if 175 or 185 would be a better length for me. i'm a very aggressive skiier, but i will be skiing in the tight east coast trees a lot, which is the only reason i am considering 175. what length do you think would be better?

i am 5'9'' and 145 lbs. i could go longer than the 185 if they made it. your contact points are 120 cm or less. they ski shorter than any other ski i own. for standard tail, and camber, i like 180ish (fischer watea 94 in 178 is perfect for me) twins 185ish. you're about my size, you can do the 185 for sure

Considering your height and how you said you will be doing a lot of east coast tree skiing I think you should go with the 175. Keep in mind that the rocker will make skis ski a bit shorter. Hope this helps
