 Im 5' 10" and 170lbs. I am going to be spending the majority of my time in the park. I am going to buy Walls. Would 177 be a good size for me?

actually, the graphic isn't that bad when you see it in person (I liked the 08 - the green one - the best, but this one really isn't as terrible as it seems on the internet).

yeah have the 177's in 08's the green ones, such a sick graphic topsheet/base, but i was flexing them the other day, and they started delamming under my heel piece on my binding, i think it was from the heely coil, im soo pissed. I already got a pair of this years for free from the rep, so its not too bad, but yeah the graphic isnt the best this years, and the grey is alot darker in person. But yeah u made the right choice with 177's

177 should be just right for you. I've got the 177 and I'm 5'10" 175lbs, and they're a perfect fit. They're f-ing sweet skis too.

yea i think the 2010 graphic looks alot better in person. wat is up with the top sheet, its feels weird, almost kinda like grip tape.

yeah, every year feels like that, it helps prevent chipping and scratching I guess - it helps a bit, but you still get some chipping and scratching.

would the walls be a good ski for a park centered ski which can still rip the whole mountain?

Absolutely. That's precisely why I bought them. And they seriously live up to the hype as an all mountain ski. They just rip everywhere.
