Hey im getting some JJ a cant decide on the 175 and 185 i am 5'8 and 205 lbs. I am a fairly strong skier but i am unsure. I live in Sout East Idaho and ski in Sun Valley and many places in north utah there is lots of powder but i would still like to do some park things including 360 and 540 and so on. I would love to hear what you think and everything is appreciated. Thank you

Definitively 185. They ski a lot shorter than you'd expect. While they aren't the best thing to use in the park, they're really not that difficult to throw around. Dropping to 175 won't help too much as they're just big sticks overall.

185 for sure!! At 205 lbs its a no brainer. You will regret the 175 on any day with new snow.
