I am 22, 6ft 165lbs and am wondering if I should get the 184 or 177's? I am an east coast skier(Jay,Mad, Killington) with a week of out west skiing(Jacksonhole). I do a lot of tree skiing, some backcountry and like to ski fast down the whole mountain. I am an expert skier and currently ski a 176. What length should I get?

I'm only 5'9" 160 lbs & I liked the 184s much more than the 177s which I thought were chattery at speed. I'm an agressive/expert Eastern skier, but I say go for the 184's!

I'm 6'1", 205lbs and love these skis - but I'm on 184's. You're much lighter than I, go with the 177's
