I'm 5'11" and weigh 165 lbs. What do you guys recommend for 60% park and 40% BC for this year's scratch bc's (west coast)? The 178 or 185? I realize it's only 7 cm which is like {----------------------------} that much. Thanks for your input.

IM on a 181 scratch bc wrs for park and im 5'9 ish, ive yet to ride them but im not to worried, i think if your in the park a majority of the time and the amount of surface area you will have i think you would have alot more fun on the BC in a 178.we prob have damn near the ame surface area if your on the 178.

You could go either way. I'm approximately your size and would definitely go for the 185's, but I like a little bigger ski for park (and everything else). If you do a lot of spinning onto rails or pipe the 178 would probably be best, but if you're more into the bigger jumps and skiing around the mountain the 185 would suit you better.
