don't count out the Scratch BC in the 186cm. Amazing in crud and trees, it got fatter this year with a 98mm waist. 185pounds is perfect for that size.

you already got that question answered, and youd most likely know if the ANTs were the right ski for you, no questions aske, especially after everything Vicious has said.

research seanvicious' list and decide for yourself. nobody can tell you what the perfect ski for you is.
