Hi, I am an aggressive skier and I'm 5ft 9" (170cm) and 160Lb and i ski on a pair of Scratch Brigade's 178cm. I was wondering what size JJ's i should get, 175 or 185?...is it better to go longer with a rocker ski? Also would you recomend mounting a pair of Marker Jesters or is there another binding better suited to the JJ?

If you are already skiing the brigades in a 178, it couldnt hurt to step up to the 185. With the rocker these will ski a little shorter than their length might suggest and a 175 will probably feel too short for you if you're already on 178s.As for bindings, the Jesters are a great option for a ski this wide.
