im 5'8" and I am 150 lbs. I am advanced to expert skiier and I ski out west like colorado and utah area skiing off trail like trees bumps steeps bowls with some out of bounds skiing. I used to ski on these 151 park skis but I rented armada arvs last season at 175 and loved them but I wanted something fatter. So I was wondering what size I should get

i am 5'9'' and 150 lbs, i use the 185 and they ski shorter than any other ski i have. the twin tip and dual rocker makes them ski very short

It really will come down to personal preference as well as your overall ability. It sounds like you would prefer a 175 while someone else of your exact same stature would prefer a 185. There is no right answer at your specific height and weight.
