If you're not going to ride too much park a longer ski would be good for you. Most park skiers buy a intermediate length ski for more control. If you're a confident skier, I would go with the larger skis given you size. Overall, its completely a personal decision based on preference. Do what feels best for you.

I'm 6' 1" with boots on and I ski the Salomon Suspects in a 181. Longer length=more versatile and more speed. However, a ski as long as a 189 will hurt you in the park. But he's right, it comes down to personal preference and confidence level.
