I am 6' 2''. 180 lbs. I need new skis park/ all mtn skis. I liked chronics, and missdemeanors way back when I was younger and lighter. What else could I try? Mostly, what size do I need? I'm definetely not wanting a floppy, noodly ski. Thanks a lot. Looking at about a 80 - 95mm waist.

You could go for the 186 Jmo (96 under foot). ON3P is a great company with great skis. They are relatively stiff but the rocker makes them butterable. I rock them on the east coast from the icy park to the Fresh Pow and spring slush (where they were amazingly fun). It's a great ski and sounds pretty good for you.

This years chronics are 92 underfoot like the cryptos of old. I'm a bigger guy like you and still say my cryptos were the best park/all mountain ski I've owned. I ride the 178s. Some will say that's too short for me bein 6'1" and 190 but for park they're fine. I like the maneuverability of a slightly shorter ski. The on3ps are a good ski to though.
