my friends looking at J.O. pros for his all mountain park ski this season, he's a bit concerned about getting 178s as he thinks theyre way too big. he rode 175 elans last year and felt that they were heavy. he's a strong skier(instructor), he's going to be using it for jumps and pipe and likely some instructing. he's 5'10" and 165lbs. so what do you guys think, am i wrong to recomend he goes with 178?

no, definitely go with 178. plus, they are light as hell, so that won't be an issue

I'm 5'10 and about 160 lbs and I have the 178 J.O. Pros.  That should make it easier.
