If your looking to only ski trees go with the 179. The 189 will give you a lot more versatility and float you better and is still very easy to ski turn. I'm exactly your stats (about an inch taller) and ski the 189 and love em. So if you want something more out of your ski then go 189. For mounting if you go 179 don't do further forward then the tradish line. If you go 189 I would go somewhere around +1 to +3.
