Lengths + Bindings.

After looking at K2 Extremes, Armda El Reys, and Liberty Hazmats, I've decided to go with the Hazmats.

I can pick up a 171 for £175 or a 181 for £185-200. No Bindings.

I'm pretty damn stuck onto which length to get, when I had my Rossingol Scratch Sprayer FS's, I had them in a 174 but I guess i only found them long when in tight tree's :/

I'm 6'1, 150lbs, (Yes i know I'm pretty light, I'm not broad but I'm not anorexic or have no muscle mass whatsoever) Will be skiing 50 - 60% Groomers. 20% Park, maybe a bit more, and the rest off piste. So I'm very unsure about getting 181's. :/

And I need a decent binding suggestion that would be suitable for the ski's. Think I'm gonna mount them at Libertys 'Cab Forward' or just behind. Thanks Guys (Y)
 
I am exactly your build and I can see your problem. I have an old pair of 169 fujatives from like 3 or 4 years ago that I feel are way too short and squirrely when I ride them. 2 years ago I was on a pair of 180 Liberty KGBs and I liked the longer length. Last year I was on 178 Phil Larrose Pros.. perfect length. This year I'm on 175 Elan Puzzles and I think they'll be good too. I guess I would go with the 181's just because I think the 171's will be too short for higher speeds, but I enjoy a longer ski. Good luck. As far as bindings I would go with a look px12 type binding... they're on steepandcheap and tramdock all the time.... nice and cheap.
 
Alright, thanks for the advice on the Lengths, and I'm afraid that's gonna be a problem about the bindings , seeing as I'm in the UK. Just had a hunt on google for some, no UK stores have them by the looks of it unless they're already on Dynsastars Ski's already :/
