I'm looking at getting some JJs and wondering if I should go with 185 or 195 AK JJ. I'm 6'1" and 165 pounds. I'll be skiing them in Colorado (mostly Copper and WP, some Steamboat). I ski trees a fair bit and I definitely want the ski to be playful. This has me thinking the 195s might be a little long and stiff, but I also don't want to feel like I'm on snowlerblades. Any advice?

If you are going to stick to the resorts and tree skiing personally I would go with the 185s however you (and myself) are in that "in between" size where personal preference is really the only way to choose. So I guess I cant help any except by saying I am 6'1" 162lbs and I ski on 185's
