I'm 5'10" and 175 lbs. I would like to try a pair of these for 50/50 resort and backcountry paired with the freeride plus. My question is: what size would suit me best? I'm a fairly agressive skier but, don't have the most perfect form.Thanks!

For you, I'd suggest a 177 in this ski.i have to say i would disagree, though it would depend on what length you have used in the past. the ski i had before i got the el hombre was a 176 and i thought it was too short, so i went with the 185, and i wouldn't go shorter. i am 5' 8" and 150. so i'll respectfully disagree with cory and say get the 185. now it is up to you.
