depends on what you want to be doing. they are all good for differrent things. do you butter, like rails, all mountain, jumps. what are you looking for in a ski

Please stop making new threads asking about different skis...just keep replying in one thread to ask.
That's a pretty wide range of skis, but here's the breakdown:- Alpha 1s - rockered park ski, fast race base, lots of pop and pretty soft- Rockers - also a rockered park ski, but stiffer than the alpha 1s, I'm pretty sure they're symmetrical unlike the Alphas.- Anthems - regular camber (no rocker), wide so they'll go all over the mountain pretty easily, the softest ski on your list for sure, symmetrical- Walls - Symmetrical, probably the stiffest on the list, kills it all over the mountain with ease- Dogmas - super poppy, super low swing weight, on the stiffer side, but still really fun. non-symmetrical.
I've skied all the skis on that list (except the rockers), and I'd say the Dogmas were my favorites on that list, but I don't think that 178 will be big enough for you, so I'd say the Walls at 185 were next on my list of what you have.

anthems.

nice and wide at 93 underfoot

soft and symmetrical and have butterzones(flexes in the same spot everytime) which is perfect for buttering and rails

unless your going huuuuuuuge, you can slay jumps on the anthems too

anthems kill it all over the mountain, and plus line isnt making them next year so snag a pair while you can!

I'm 6'4, 185 lbs and I have had Anthems and Walls. Anthems are way to short for someone our size dude. Unless you are using them exclusively for park, you are gonna feel like you are falling over your tips. I picked up some 185 Walls and they are perfect, a lot stiffer than the Anthem, but just all around great. Plus, you can take them anywhere on the mountain minus some powder and they are good to go. I say get the walls. And any rockered ski is gonna feel shorter due to it being rockered so keep that in mind. I know this is the last year Moment Rockers come in a 184, and next year its like 179 or something like that. Also, Alpha's only come in 182, so both of those will feel pretty short with the rocker. GET THE WALLS!

alpha 1's are not at all soft, they are very stiff.
