Armada JJ Length Question

I am going to be getting a pair of Armada JJ's because the shop near me has a great deal on them. I am torn between getting the 175 length or the 185 length.
I currently have a pair of line anthems at 171 that I used every day last season.

Height=5'9-5"10
Weight=145+/-
Ability=Expert
Local=East coast
Days Riding=3/4 days per week opening day through closing day

I will be using the skis primarily on our east coast powder days and will be spending most of the time in the trees.
An employee at the shop was telling me to go with the 175 length cause it would be more nimble in the trees, although I know with the rocker a 185 length could feel closer to a 180 or even less.
So what would you suggest and why?
 
Def the 185. They ski REALLY short. I am 5,7 and have the 175, and sometimes they feel a little bit too short for me.
 
definitely go for the 185, as mentioned above they ski short. theyre really light for a pow ski so you'll definitely be able to whip em around. i'm 6'3" with 185s and i kinda wish they came in a 190+
 
I wish Armada would step up their lengths. Im 6'3 200 and wanted the JJ"s, but I am going with the 192 Bentchetlers.
 
yeah i think they should drop a 195 out there! i honestly think they would sell a shit load of those! get it going! boom!
