hi i am 5 6 3/4, 46 and solidly built aggressive skier liking quick turns and wondering if the 170 would be too short for me....Once again like the short turns for steeps, trees etc but do not want to also have a big trade off in the powder with a shorter ski....any help on this would be great and also of course how this ski would hold up for big powder days..Want to add to my quiver for a big out west ski

More than your height and age, your weight will help people with determining weather you'll be able to float this ski for big powder days. That said, I'd be a bit hesitant about pulling out any ski that's less than 100mm at the waist for big powder days. If you really want a big fat out west ski, look for something with at least a 105-115mm waist. I'm an east coaster and I have a pair of Volkl Gotama's that I take out west (105mm at the waist).
