they measure how much of the ski actually touches the snow. for example.. my seth vicious are actually 193 cm long, but only 189cm actually touches the snow.

Actually,
When I measured my 189 Maden's and Vicious they had the equivilent running length to a 182/183 flat tailed ski! my 179 PE had a running length somwhere arround 172/173. The total length I measured tip to tail 189s came to 190/191. I did not measure the 179s. Volkl's come up even shorter!
