Hey guys so as the title says im about to pick up a pair of J's ALL PLAY skis and was wondering what size i should go with. This is my 3rd year skiing and im looking to focus a lot in the park this year so im not sure if i should go with something a bit shorter or just go big. I'm 6'0 and about 165lbs. I was deciding between either the 178 and the 184. Let me know what you guys think!!

How do you like the vishnu's i was thinking about picking them up but the only reason i stuck with the all play is because it seemed like a better pick for all mountain.

Theyre fun and have a unique springy bounce to them and where i ride i dont need anything stiffer, bc its a 500 vert hill, but i wish i had something chargier at times

my quiver last year were the v’s and on3p kartel 106’s but unfortunetly i sold the on3ps :/

It kind of depends on what you want in the park, if you're big into spins off of rails or getting started in the park and need a little extra help getting any spins around a shorter ski could make it easier to get that extra 180 but if you are comfy in the park and want a more all around ski that would fit you i'd go with the 184

I'm the same size as you and I whip aroun 189 hellbents and those are some heavy skis so I think you'll be fine plus when you take them out of the park you will be glad you have the extra leangth
