Buying '07 mojo 90. Can't decide between 186 or 193cm. I'm currently on Dynastar concept 180cm and before that the 1080 177cm.

I'm 6'4 and 218lbs.

Thanks for your input.

I do about 50% park and 50% all mountain. All mountain meaning mostly steep in trees.

I'd go 193. According to the guys on the TGR boards, the Mojo 90 rides short. And in my experience, the 180 Concept rides like a longer ski. I'm 6'4" and 195 lbs, and the Concept is the only all-mountain ski that's worked well for me in a shorter length than 190.

Definitely the 193, I'm 5'9" and if I were buying mojo 90s, I'd buy the 186, so yeah, definitely the 193 for you.

You're pretty much exactly my size. I'd go 193, but I also ride 186 pollards. So you'll be okay with either. If it's your only ski, go 193, if you have the potential to have one long and one 185ish ski, then you might consider 186. But they both have their advantages.
