My Dad is looking for a pow ski this year, and I've been recommending JJs for him
He's 5'10", 185ish pounds, and an Advanced Skier.

We live in Colorado.
We won't be using them on cliffs really, just pow and trees.

would the 185 or 195 be a better choice for him?

Thanks a shit ton. +K

185 unless he really charges which is unlikely. 95 would probably be overkill and would be harder to throw around in tighter trees

Remember, the 195 is stiffer, so I think that would just be too much for him. I would go 185
