I'm 6ft and about 190lbs, i don't want to lose any control because i offen have to make quick turns on crud and I also ski instruct kids so should i get the 185's or 177's? And i dont need them park specific so if i buy these i should set the bindings (marker jesters) 2cm back? I do about 40/50/10 piste/off piste/park but i want to get into park more

Hey man, You do alot of park skiing or all round? If your 6 feet tall you could live with the 177 im 5 10 and getting 170s but if you do alot of park skiing i suggest the 169 of volkl or 166 of Armada AR6. But at 6 feet tall you should be fine with the 177 the only difference is if your teaching kids how to ski your going slow and want to turn really smooth and easy to show them how to snow plow and if your going to use this as a park ski go 177 or 170 or shorter if you like. The shorter the ski the easier to turn little less speed and longer the ski you go faster but can't turn as fast not a big difference but you would notice so. Also if your into "switch" you want a shorter ski because its harder to spin and stuff also if your doing alot of park skiing get a center mount for you binding or moderate....... All I have to say about this ski about for what your using it for is great I would buy it.
