Hey, I am looking into getting the ARMADA JJ 2.0 but I can't decided between the 175 and the 185? I am about 5'10'' and weight 210-220LBs. I want something that i can use in the trees and be agile and able to do nose butters and not have to much ski but still want float for when it snows.

I NEED SOME HELP PLEASE!!!!

II ski the LINE CHRONIC in a 171 right now. never skied anything over 175 and just don't know about the 185 length and there is no place to demo these on the east coast!

185. Keep in mind a more rockered ski will feel shorter

185s. I'm 5'5", as tall as my 166cm park skis pretty much. I've ridden 175 and 185 JJs. I'd pick 175s for me, but the 185s were no issue at all either. I'd get 185s if I were your height for sure. If the 2.0s are similar to the JJs, they're very easy to ski in trees and the rocker makes sliding around and pivot type turns really easy.

185 for sure. with early tip rise, it will ski much shorter than 185 making it more maneuverable it tight spot but float in the deep
