Henry, I just bought the 189cm Obsethed, had the 179cm on hold and struggled my a.. off with the length issue. I'm 6ft 185lbs but ski tight trees and many moguls around here. Trying them tomorrow and hope like hell they are not too long to swing around. If they are will be downsizing to the 179cm after I give them a fair shot. I ski a 177cm Mantra as my everday ski. I will let you know what I think.

189s are going to be long on you. K2s run big, and that's a lot of ski to be throwing around unless you are used to it. 179s would be better for you.
