Nomad 95 or Kartel 98

I ski mammoth and want to start skiing park more. Thinking about the Icelantic nomad 95 or ON3P Kartel 98 for a park ski that I can still use around the mountain a little. Leaning towards the nomad since it’s lighter and my local shop has them. I mostly considered the kartel 98 since it comes in 176, and I might grow out of 171 Icelantics too fast. (I’m 5’7). Any thoughts on the skis/ what size I should go?

just snag the 181s. they have some rocker to them so youll have no trouble ripping them plus long skis will give you more stability with a slight sacrifice to swing weight off rails. Im an inch taller than you and honestly cant imagine skiing anything under a 180 because they'd feel like complete twigs.
