yeah, it depends on what you are skiing mainly. I got 172's and i'm 6' 3" but its because i ski in tight trees a bunch and just wanted a ski to mess around with, and i love it. However, i've skied on 185 in more open areas and they perform well for what i wanted then, in open areas where i need speed, and where there is deeper snow. The reality is that in the East you will be skiing moguls and glades, not open bowls. So just because you are tall doesn't mean you need a long ski, you need to think about what you will be skiing in
