You should be fine with that, maybe even look into something bigger if you want to do all-mountain skiing. For reference, I'm the same size as you except five pounds heavier and I skied a pair of 195 B3's (94mm waist) for a day and LOVED them. It's all in the tecnique; if you can learn to ride a bigger ski they are worlds better than any sort of short ski you can buy.

B3s arent a big ski.. How about some 193 Titan Pros, 194 Legend Pros, or 193 Supermojos-Those are some big skis. You should be able to handle 180s with ease.
