I want to get a pair of fischer addicts, my question is... If I'm 5'10 170 lbs should I go for 172cm or 181cm?

its basically preference but by your size i would say the 172  but if your a strong skier than you could handle the bigger size

i have them and they arent very soft so you could get away with 172s no problem.

it just seems like a ski as long as 181 would be really hard to spin with

get the 181 if you're a strong skier. they're not that stiff, people are just used to noodley park skis. im about your size and wouldn't even consider the 172.
