I’m about 6’4 205 and in the rockys. I want the volkl revolts in 188 because they just look sick. I’ve heard the saying you should try around your height in length, my height is 193 cm.

I don’t think it’d be to long for someone your size. You may want to go with revolt 95 or 104 something a bit wider for more stability also

I think at your size anything below like 185ish will probably feel too small, so 188cm would be good

I’ve skied the 188 Revolt 104 in the park and I’m only 5’11, it’s a light ski and it has a low swing weight so you’d be more than fine! Fire ass ski

Yup. It’s also almost flat cambered, given how little camber and how much tip/tail rocker there actually is. Super quick edge to edge, 188 would be fire for you OP

Im 5'9 160lbs and my park ski was a 185cm Chronic for a couple seasons, never felt like they were too long especially if you centre mount. You will be fine with 188cm, hell if they had a size bigger id say go for that!
