I'm 5'10" and a little heavier at 190. I ski 65/35 BC to resort and am wondering if I should get these in 185, or if that would be too long. Or if I should get the Verdict's in 180.

Depends on where you are skiing. If you are skiing in the west (tahoe, jackson, utah etc.) then I would definitely go for the 180 Verdict because they are quite a bit better in the pow. If you are skiing in the east then you will probably prefer the skinnier Havoc for its quickness and carving ability.
