Need help: Surface Double Times or Surface Watchlifes

Trying to decide between the double times or the watch lifes, I will be skiing 60% park 40% all mountain. The biggest issue i have is length and flex, I am 6'4" 205lbs and am worried the double times will be too short at 180cm and they have(according to the surface website) 8.0 of 10 on the flex scale compared to the[182cm length] 8.5 of 10 flex Watchlifes. Any advice is appreciated, Thank you!!!!

I'm your exact size - I have Double Times.
I ride about 90% park though - the flex is on the stiffer/poppier side, but not a hard charging kind of ski.
I have a pair of Watch Life's sitting in front of me right now - and if I didn't ride so much park, I would for sure be mounting a pair of these up.

I would go with the Watch Life's. They'll provide more stability outside of the park since they are a little beefier. Along with that, they still kill it in the park. I've seen more people on those in the park then on Double Times. They're the perfect 60:40 ski. And do still kill it in the park

I'm sure I will be going with the watch lifes, I just like stiff skis even in the park plus I'm kinda a big guy
All times are Eastern (-5)
