Hey guys Im looking for some park skis. Some background to my skill level. I picked up skis for the first time this year after shattering my wrists and ending my snowboarding career. I was a pretty big park snowboarder. I picked skiing up pretty quick. I can ski powder and all mountain but the park is where my heart is. I borrowed my friends line chronics which were 171 and I landed a 360,540, and a backflip on my fifth day of skiing. Im looking for boots bindings and skis and since I don't know to much about ski gear I figured Id ask.

LOCATION Park City UT
HEIGHT/AGE/WEIGHT 6'2 19 185
ABILITY LEVEL Id say 3
BUDGET Just give me a few park setups skis/bindings. Im gonna go with full tilt boots unless anybody has any other suggestions. No budget really
WHAT KIND OF SKI DO YOU WANT 95% park riding 10% everywhere else



People say I should be on 178 but I feel comfortable with 171 so list a size and why I should go longer or short as well

Yea I'm thinking 178. I feel like 182 would be to big for park but I have no idea.
