Quick advice before I buy my powder skis.

Going to pull the trigger on some ON3P Billy Goats. Was wondering what size to buy. 184 vs 189. Some stats about me...

6’2” 200lbs

PNW ~Northern Idaho/Washington/Montana

Current skis, 2017 Line Sir Francis Bacon 190cm

What I expect out of this ski, something to use on powder days that will float well, bust through crud, and be maneuverable in the trees. I have already decided on the ON3P Billy Goats just need help deciding on the size.

What size ON3P Billy Goats do you think I should buy 184 or 189.

Thanks for the help!

Naw, they are overkill. Meant for TGR blowhards to stroke their peen. The current 189 is plenty. I used to ski the 191's and sized down in recent years. The current 189 is pretty much the same as the old 191 with 2 cm lopped off the tail.
