At your size you should really look into ANTs or maybe 190 Gotamas-if you're looking for a twin tip. If not, then there's quite a few skis from Capital, Igneous, Rossignol, and Dynastar that you could possibly check out.

the SV in a 189 might not be too bad I got them in a 179 and love them but Im not a big guy(only 160) but they arnt a stiff ski by any means.. Its deff a better choice then the arvs

it depends on how hard you want to ski them. I have them and am big as well (195 lbs). If you like to carve big long hard turns they won't be fantastic, but they are lots of fun and have surprising energy for a soft ski

negative. ARVs are slightly softer than SVs

they will be way to soft for you, if you like armada i would go for the jp's or the ANT's but nothing lower

You will crush them
The skis you should look at would be this year's ANT for a chaging stick, and SV in 189 if you are looking for a more versatile park/all mountain ski. You won't find the SV to be very still at your weight.

buahaha. compared to what? a plastic sled? I mean the ANTs are very wide and have little sidecut. I personally haven't ridden them, but speculation could only suggestion they are one of the poorer performance groomed run skis

if you want more groomer performance, go for the Seth Vicious 189

Wow dude, you really are a fatass. I mean come on, lay off the twinkys. I'm 6" and I'm only 140lbs and my dad's 6'4 and he's only 180lbs. If I were you get something really stiff.

i would say supermodels or mojo 90s for sure, ive riden the mojos on groomers and they performed surprisingly well. i didnt hit any real features on them (just a small skiercross course) btu even from that i could tell they would be a very stable ski for park. and as far as the supermodels go i have not heard anything negative about them and they seem like a ski you should check out.
