Debating between the two, getting the 185 or the 181 respectively. Can't really make a decision and was wondering if any liked one of the skis more. Any help is appreciated.

Those skis aren't even remotely similar. What made you narrow your choice down to those two?

similar demensions and rocker but the chronic is more of a park ski while the access is an all mountain ski and isnt a full twin.

Are you going to ski park with them as well as using them in Colorado? If so, I'd say get neither and go for either the Volkl Bridge or the Line Blend.

What do you mean by not a full twin? That it is a very directional ski or that it lacks a tail tip? Because mine (2010-2011 and 2011-2012) definitely had tail tips.

If it lacked a tail tip, it would not be a twin tip at all. By saying "not a full twin" he means that it is a directional ski and the rear tail does not form a full tip to function for normal switch skiing. Granted, you can ride switch on it, but that tail is more for hooking skins onto them than for landing switch.

Exactly what I was thinking, but I know two people one has the chronic the other has the access. My friend with the access just uses them out west and he said that he loves them but they are a little soft for the moguls. My other friend has the chronics and he loves them too. He has those center mounted and he says they r pretty buttery. He uses them for all park and a little Midwest all mountain skiing
