Demo'd the Big Troubles and hated them. They felt super heavy and didn't hold an edge for crap. IMGO, my prophet 100s, which are longer and wider, are much better in and out the park. (I'm not necessarily recommending that you get the 100s. I'm just saying that I didn't like the BTs.)

eh, my BT's rape in the pow, but i can still throw shit down in the park, but they don't have much sidecut so obviously they wont hold a huge edge on groomers, but i can still do butter 3's on em and such
they are a fun ski, and i recommend them so long as you keep your old foils for a like, jib ski so you dont destroy the BT's

I'm pretty sure like 75% of the theads in the equipment forum are on this exact topic, a ski that does everything. just search for each ski that you're interested in with the searchbar and you'll get plenty of info and opinions.

Get someting longer than 170, trust me. I'm your height and I've been able to flip over off my tips when they were 170.
