The next size down from the 184 is a 173 which is on the short size for someone your size. I would look at other skis maybe a little more narrow if you are an intermediate skier. I would check out the Volkl Bridge 177cm (92mm waist) Line Prophet 179cm (100mm waist) or if you really want a 100+ mm waist ski then check out the Scott P4 181cm (108mm waist). I've skied all of these before and they are all awesome. The P4's are surprisingly nimble for their size. I skied a pair of P4 191cm and they turned like a 171cm ski and were stable like a 200cm ski. The Prophet 100 and the P4 have metal in them so they are a little more heavy.
