I am 5'7'' and an aggressive skier. I ski on a pair of 171 4frnt MSPs for front country and park skiing and some light east coast powder. I would be inclined to get the 175 but am wondering if I should go longer because of the reverse camber. I way 150-155 pounds by the way, depending on my water intake.

I ski on the 185 and weigh 150 lbs. It is a lot to throw around. The 175 would be easier for backcountry jibbing.

these ski's are huge, i would go with the 175, the 185 would be to much ski to throw around IMO.
