I would say Pocket rockets, they are lighter, they are fun in the pow and they are good in the park, not so good in the pipe though, I would say Salomon, plus Salomon has way better customer service for people in Canada if you have problems.

dude, if you weigh that much and are that tall, you need the 190 mo-ships. I'm 6' 170lb, and I rode the PR's one day, and they are soft as shit. I guarentee you will max out on the speed 20 feet into any straightline. Plus, spaceframe snaps in half all the time. Plus, they're blue and have a robot on them. Get the mother ships.

I'm about the same size as you, 6' 190 lbs and ride the 185 Rockets. I have pushed these skis time after time and haven't found their limit yet. They set up perfect for the west coast see as I ski the rockies and haven't found anything the rockets don't kick ass at, except for the pip which I saw someone already said they weren't the best at. Plus, the warranty is pretty good and easy to get a replacement pair if they break.

skimack is right dude. im tellin u they r way 2 soft 4 me at 180lbs. but that isn't wot would make me get the moships. the moships hav wood in em dude. i no a guy who is way lighter than me and he ski's hard, the pr's r now complete wet noodles man. fucking dead. moships, providin they dont delam as sum other line riders say, will last plus b better in crud.
