I'm 6'0, 165 pounds, fairly agressive skier, i like to charge big tunrs in deep snow whenever i can, but i also like pillows and tree skiing, so should i go Armada JJ 185, or Bibby Pro, 184?

I think the JJ is a better ski, for sure. It's a tad stiffer, and I think they're bullet proof. You're right along with me on size, maybe a bit heavier, and I debated to go for the 195 AKJJ, but I'm really happy with the 185. I've been using it for patrol work and have put it through the ringer. It transitions seamlessly from wind-buff, to powder, to groomer, to machine-made, packed ice, and kills it. Ditto what Ian Provo says: They truly are the best skis ever made.
