I currently ride 171 Line invaders that i use specificly for park, but im looking for a second ski to take all over the mountain, to include powder, I am 5'10- 5'11, wear 26.5 boots, and my lines come up to my eye level, and weigh 140lbs, whats the ideal allmountain length (non rockered skis), is it the same or a little longer, for instance would 182 surface watch lifes be alright,(its about a cm taller than me), if i still want to take the all mountains in the park sometimes?

yeah, you'd be fine with anything in the high 170s (178+) to low 180s (183-). 182 Watch Lifes would be an awesome All-Mountain ski to have and it still plays nice in the park.

I'm 6'1" (And i'm tons of fun, +k to anyone who gets that reference) And i ski 178 anthems for every day when it hasnt been snowing for a while, and also in the park. They are pretty damn good, but i wouldnt mind them a bit longer.
