I want this ski! I've heard so much about this ski, now I'm just debating over which size to get. I will be using the ski as an everyday ski. I'll be skiing everything on this ski including glades, bumps, powder, and groomers. I ride the Atomic Snoop right now at 176. Because of the reverse camber, should I go up to 186, or should the 178s be long enough? 5'9" and 165lbs. Any help would be great.

178 long enough if you want to ride bumps and trees too. I am 5'10 160lb and road 170s for two years. Only reason to go any longer is if you only do fast groomers. Loved this ski. Just sold it this year. Put over 250 days on it and it was skied out! Bought Volkl Aura 170 and then bought a fatty to go with. Hope this helps
