I am 5'11 210lbs and I ski pretty aggressively.

Should I go 181 or 186?


I ride 178 chronics in the park and I think they are a perfect length for just park skiing.

186. Chronics are regular cambered skis. The jeffreys have elliptical rocker in tip and tai, so they'll ski shorter. Plus I don't think the jeffreys even come in 181...

"As of now, the Jeffrey will only be available in a 186cm. But if there is interest in a 176cm, please let us know as we would gladly offer it if the demand is there."

I'd probably size up unless you value a lower swing weight over a noticibly shorter feeling when just skiing around. Generally, when going from non rockered to rockered, add 5cm

Go 186. Perfect length. I am an inch shorter than you and a bit lighter and the 186 is perfect, wouldn't ever wanna go shorter, especially at your weight.

186 for sure I'm like 5'7'' 140 and I ride the 181, 186 sounds like the way to go.

I'm 5'8" and I rode the 186s last year, tons of fun, such an all-around awesome ski, don't go small with them.

definitely 181. Filthy riches have atleast bit of rocker in the tip/tails I think. So 181 will pretty much be perfect. I'm about 5"10/5"11 and have 182 alpha 1s
