I'm trying to decide what size Helix I should buy. I am an East Coaster - advanced/expert current ripping on Elan 888 (178) with good success. If I go to the Helix, should I go with the 187 or 176? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

if you are over 6" and dont plan on spinning these in a park too often, hit up the longer pair. see my post above for my thoughts about the 176's stability in choppy snow.
