These skis can pretty much rip it all. Groomers are no problem, even with the rocker, and bumps are even possible (if that's your thing). I have even skied park in these, but it's like a tank on each foot, but offers a nice stable platform for landing. If you ski groomers and not much pow, then you could get away with either the 179 or the 189. The 189 will feel long until you are used to it though. As for mounting point, +2 rips it.
