For you guys that run a longer park ski how much longer do you typically run your powder skis?

What’s the ski in question? I’m 5’11 run a 182 park ski and 189-192 pow skis. How good of a skier are you? How tall are you? Is this just a pow ski?

Where are you doing your skiing? East coast west coast Europe? 185 isn’t that short but depending on how good of a skier you are and how much you weigh you might overpower it

6’1 and ride a 186 park ski, use a 192 full rocker for powder. I recommend it.
