Thats a tough one 6 feet is like 180 cm? Wow, thats a toss up. I dont know much about either ski, other than demoing them, but i would assume if you rode mostly park, the SPK would be the way to go.
I found the foil to be a little softer then the spk, and more turney and quick. I really liked them, but, the felt a little bulky.
The spk's were awesome. Super light, great switch, super fun.
Since your 170lbs, i would go with the SPK's if I were you.

personally i would go with the foil. i prefer the flex/ dimensions. wouldn't be one of my top choices for skis though.

God damn, did you even read the thread? We are talking about the SKIS, not the boots.
Again, for your size and type of riding, you should go with the SPK.
