Hey! Im 5 foot 8ish, 125 pounds, advanced skier. Looking to use these when theres any sort of fresh snow. Will the 183 be too long? For park skis i ride a 171 ON3P blue steele by the way...

183 is fine. With the rocker they'll be super quick. You'll definitely be surfing more than sinking with 123 underfoot at 125 lbs. Always better to have less width than weight :)

I'm 5'6 160lb and I own last years model. These own and your more then fine in a 183cm. I have no issue what so ever turning these on a dime in tight spots.

I'm around 5'8 120 pounds also. I'm going to buy these skis soon and 172 and 183 difference for a ski is almost no difference. I'm also an andvanced skier and with the amount of rocker these skiis have will make the ski ski shorter than normal. Yet the two point contact with the rocker makes it so after your done skiing the pow you can go and ski the hardpack greatly. These ski will ski 183 in the powder which you would want a longer ski in the powder. What makes this ski and the armada Jj's unique is that it has different flex in the tail, middle, and tip. The tail and tip are stiffer for when you going fast and since your pretty light like me the flexy part underfoot makes the ski better for lighter people. My reccomndation would be to buy this ski before it goes out of stock.

the 183's should be fine for you. the amount of rocker that these boys have will make them ski alot shorter than they actually are. Especially if you are using them as your powder ski and not your daily driver then I doubt the length would be any problem for you
