Hi I’m a 6,2 210lbs skier who is an advanced expert more towards expert if that makes sense but I can’t decide if I need a 184cm or a 192cm ski any help or tips?

Generally someone your height (188cm) would be on the 192. But you could go shorter if you like short skis. If you're unsure, the 192 would be more typical and recommended.

192 all the way! I’m about the same build as you and I ride 192s. The 184s feel wayyyy to damn short and there’s no stability at speeds and in the soft snow there’s way less float

Depends on what you’re doing, if you’re trying to throw tricks and shit around the mountain I’d go 184 bc it’ll be easier to swing but if you’re trying to bomb shit and hit it hard go 192. Got a buddy who has both and uses them for said applications

Assuming you are talking about the BC 120. I am 3” shorter then you, I got the 184 and mounted -2 from recommended line. My use is tighter narrower lines. At your height I think I would go longer, even with bindings mounted they are crazy light…
