im 5'11" 190 and i ski about 50/50 between park and all mountain. I basically refuse to ride straight groomers because its too boring. I ski mostly powder in the trees and park. At my local mountain, mt hood meadows, there isnt much wide open bc faces. I currently ride 180 scratch fs but they feel to cumbersome all around, and especially on rails/park. is the 171 too short? I demo-ed the 171 and loved them but im wondering about the 178, and if it would feel too much like the 180. p.s. they didnt have the 178 to demo. Also, wouldnt the 171 BC still have more float than the 05-06 180 fs? Any suggestions?

I ride meadows too, I'm on the same 07 scratch wrs BC except in a 185. You weigh about 20 lbs more than me and are the same height. The 185 kills it all over
