Hi all, I'm 35 years old, 5'10" 180 lbs and was wondering whether I should get the 175 or the 185 length. I'm an advanced intermediate who is just picking things up again after a ten year layoff. I'll be skiing in Utah 99% of the time. I demoed the Rossi S7 188cm and felt it was just a touch too long for my abilities. Your input is appreciated!

185, 185, 185! The JJ's rocker makes it much, much shorter than you'd expect.

175 if you feel like being lazy. 185 if you want to man up. 185 is by no means too large for a person of your stature, considering they ski more like a 175 with the rocker. my feeling would be after a few days on the 175, you would be wishing you went bigger.
