I'm a skiboarder that's going to be making the switch to full length skis so I can ski more powder, I'm almost 6'2", should I start out with a shorter ski until I get use to it or should I just start out with the 183cm?

I suggest going with the 178's, which should have plenty of float in powder if you are under 210 lbs. If you are over go for the 183's.Other opinion: Go longer for your powder skis at your height. Unless you are a skinny rail, the longer skis will give you more float, but will be a tiny bit slower in turns.
