Planning on buying some 2016 Blends but am not sure what size to get. I'm 6' 165lbs and am planning on using these skis for midwest "pow" days and on a trip to colorado this winter. Already own park skis so these would be my all Mtn/Pow sticks. Had My sights set on 178's because that's what my park skis are but wondering if I should get the 185's instead.
Get the 185s. You might even want them longer but it looks like that is the longest length. You'll be mounting them close to center so they will ski short.
I wouldn't get blends for all mtn pow. A 100mm isn't bad but they're super soft, and you're a big guy. I'd get something a little stiffer or go up to the SFB to get some more beef/stiffness under you, still super playful versatile.
