Am 6'4", around 220lbs dressed to ski. I know I should go 193, but wouldn't that cost me some fun in the trees? Would 185 not also be sufficient for a lad my size?

Do not hesitate to grab the 193s. You've got me by 2" and 20 lbs and to me the 185 just isn't enough ski. I never got to ski the 193 last spring as I busted by leg in February but I had quite a few days on the 185 and I wanted the longer length most of the time. They were fine on groomers but in any sort of variable terrain or wind affected snow I wanted more ski. The rocker profile makes the ski super quick when you need it to be but when you're hauling they'll still feel really stable.
