I'm 6' and 210 lbs. Demoed this ski in a 180 last weekend and found it to be a lot of work. Thinking about buying it in a 175 or even a 170 and am curious if anyone else has dropped down in length to accommodate the beefiness of this ski.

..it's a metal sheet ski...don't ski it down...175 and up makes it work. Your weight is what the sheet will absorb when you put some flex into it. "ski heavy" and it will carve even better at slower speed. Anything less than a 175 cm and I'll bet every turn will feel like they are washing out...tip and tail.

Im curious as well. 6 foot 175lb here. Initial reaction was to go 180cm , but for East Coast, groomers, might run out of mountain quickly.
