so i was wondering if anybody could give me some advice, i currently have silencers in a 179, always found they have been fine, but im going to buy a new pair of skis.

my question is would the domains or iron maidens in a 174 be too small, im 6'1 and about 170lbs. the reason why im looking at them in a 174 rather than 179 is just becuase there is a sale on in a shop i know of but they are sold out of the 179s..

yea at 6'1" 174's will seem short even though they measure out to 177ish which is what size i use for park and im 5'8". i would stay above 179 at your size

It depends on how good the deal is in my opinion. The 174 K2 is actually 177-78cm long so it isn't ridiculously tiny, around 10cm shorter than you in boots. The Domain would be way too short because it's such a noodle but you would be ok on a 174 Iron Maiden in my opinion. Not saying the 179 wouldnt be better but in reality, 5cm is a very minor difference.
