Check out the performance ski rental shop by the Snorting Elk Pub just across the foot bridge on the left. You may be able to rent both sizes. Greater supply of these on the market this year may lead to rental availability. Call/email? When in doubt go longer. Easier to sell if you feel they are not what you want.

175, but remember the total length is not engaged unless you are in deeper snow. So on anything but the pow and crud your riding 5-10 shorter, so don't expect it to ride like a 175 if your railing a groomer. I'm 5'6 160lb and I ride the 183 Chetler for pow days, 175 JJ for everything other then dump days.

Your height would definitely put you in the 175, but these days we don't really size by height anymore. If you are a strong skier looking to play in the powder, the 185 is going to give your 200 lbs better float and given your weight I'm sure you're plenty powerful enough to muscle the JJ around. Go w/ the 185 and get'er'done

Considering your height I would go with the 175.
