So I'm a old-school GS skier (currently own a sweet setup - 183cm Fischer WC GS about 3 seasons old)... under the right conditions these razor blades rip, I treat 'em like SL's and carve-up tight turns down the front side groomers. Getting older and want to do more AT & BC skiing... legs are not as strong as when I skied 200cm. I'm from the North East and basically only ski here... I'm 5'7" and weigh 145 lbs. What size Baron's should I get? I need a good all mountain size for front side and the BC (NY 'dak slides, Jay Peak, etc.). I'm not going to ski as aggressively like I do my GS skis but I need something for a advanced skier.Is this the ski for me? What size? Would 170's better suited for ducking in and out of trees?Without a doubt I'll mount them with AT bindings.-DoubleB

I'm also a Northeasterner and ski the same conditions and areas you do. At your skill level, I think the 170cm will be too short, and you'll quickly overpower them. The 177cm would probably be a better choice. It will give you more stability, while still being manuverable in the north country's tight trees and on the hardpack. Keep in mind these are going to feel a lot softer than your WC GS boards.
