On3p make skis in 191 and 189. They run true to size as well so keep in mind.

ON3P also give 10% off to military members.

My suggestion from the ON3P lineup would be a 191cm Jeffrey 114, Kartel 108, or Kartel 116. Just depends on how wide you are looking to go. 191cm Jeffrey 114 is on sale right now too (1 pair left).

Also check out the 190 Moment Deathwish and whatever the longest size 4frnt Devastator is.

No reason to drop below 185/186. Still think 189-191 is your optimal size.
