Im 5'11, Im on 170 bandit X's, 174 K2 Axis X, prob gonna get the 174 scratch fs or the 176 BC. A deep powder day for me though is above your ankles, so short is the order of the day. Australia sucks. I did try a pair of 177 Xscreams, good and fast, absoloutely knackered by the end of the day, probably should get fit.

I'm 6'4' and I ski Nordica Beast 74's in 183, before I went to twins I skied a pair of Atomic Super Moguls in 191, and have gone longer before on my Dad's Dynastar Omega Concept's in 201, but I usually like a shorter ski in the 180 area.

5'10 on 168s. They are from when I was about 5'4 1-2 years ago. Next skis will be at least a 175. Im looking into next years 180 MSP and maybe the PEs.
