i would go with the 175 and mount the salomon STH 16 or if you drop huge cliffs go with the salomon 920 which has a din rating from 12-20 it just depends on how much you want to spend on bindings. The STH 16 might be better for you depending on your ability cause all of the 920 din settings are high or very high.

It would depend on what you ski I would say. I'm 90kg and 6' and I ski the 185 in steep trees and bowls. You could go for the 175, since you are a lighter guy, and that would be all you needed, but you could also get away with the 185. As for bindings, the Marker Royal Family bindings are really good, if not overpriced, Look/Rossi/Dynastar all preform very well, and Salomon bindings are good. Basically, any clamp that has the DIN you want, and is in your price range, I say go for it.
