Alright NS help me out. I'm 5'11 165 and ski mostly groomers but hope to maybe get out west at some point either this season or next. I took the last two seasons off due to school and other reasons. With that being said the last thing I have rode was 160cm Rossignol Storm, grew up some since then. I ski park and need help on deciding a new length and ski. I have read all kinds of discussions and am pretty sure a ski around the 180 mark will be good but wanna hear what you guys think. With that being said throw out some options of skis you guys like and think I should look into.

178-183 would be a good fit for you depending on what kind of skier you are

What kind of width and flex are you looking for? Rocker or camber?

If you want something similar to the storms, I'd reccomend the Armada Ar7, Fischer Nightsticks, or Nordica OMWs.

Liked the width of the storms but am willing to look at different suggestions. Rocker tips and camber underfoot sounds like the way to go. As for flex I want something daily for all around park whether that be small kickers or some rails. I lurk on here and watch videos all the time and research skis but figured I might as well ask you guys since you know different skis and how they feel.
