Joystick These sizing advice

Hey NS,

I am looking for a soft park ski for this coming winter to jib around on and learn rails.

I'm 19, 180 cm and about 195 lb.

I've been looking at the Joystick These but am not sure whether the 175 cm length will be too short for me.

I usually ride my 184 cm Salomon's Rocker 2's and love them.

Thanks for any help.

 
Can I get that measurement in North American please?

I joke.

In all seriousness, I don't think the These would be the best fit for you. I'm 6'1", approx. 160lbs, and I find they tend to wash out on jumps over ~25 feet. They're fun as hell and I'm super stoked on them, but they definitely aren't the highest performance ski.

Also, I found that the 175 measurement was a little suspect.. or rather, I measured them against my buddy's 172 T-Halls and they were virtually the same. Not sure whose measurement was off, but it's worth considering.
 
Err, fuck. Totally disregarded the fact that you said you were looking for a jib ski. Woops. Anyway, make of my advice what you will.
 
Ahh alright, the fact that they matched up with your buddy's thalls probably puts them a bit too short for me. Back to the drawing board i suppose. Thanks for the help
