I am 5'4", 155 lbs. More interested in versatilty powder, crud, groomers, bumps than fast GS turns. Was thinking about 179cm, then saw Tom from Colorado's post at 195lbs he is skiing 172's. Makes me think that I shouldn't go any longer than 172. I ski Pacific NW and Mt Shasta. Any opinions?

This ski is definitely a true twin. That means it gives up some of it's effective edge. Consider that when you're sizing this ski. FWIW, my current skis are 182 and I wouldn't think of sizing down to the 179 Prophet. If the 186 shows back up on BC, you can bet I am placing an order.
