hey i'm going to be purchasing the Line chronics and I can not decide on the size I have now the 2011/12 chronics in a 164 and i love the way they ride they are not center mounted. i am about 5'11 and 200 pounds now. I ski about 50/50 park and mountain, love to find park type feature on the trails though help me on a size please i was thinking either 164 or upgrade to the 171?

Help please
 
I'd say you probably want the 178. You could easily use the 186 but it sounds like you prefer shorter skis. Definitely don't go shorter, you will regret it
 
There is a pair of 183 Chronics from 2012 I think (they're they green and purple ones that were the last model line made before adding rocker and making them a half cap construction) on ebay right now for three hundred something dollars. You should hop on those, because that size would fit you perfectly. I'm 5'11" 145 lbs, and I wouldn't even consider seriously skiing a park ski that was much shorter than 180 cm. At your weight, you should have no problem driving a pair of 180+ cm skis around.
 
178 without a doubt. im your height but 60 lbs lighter and would rock those any day, if you plan on going big on jumps or skiing aggressively I would get a size bigger even.
 
Im 5'7 130lbs. I have always had skis that are longer than me. I still want to butter/press/jib on them and hit small-medium-bigger jumps too. Would 178 be too long for buttering/pressing or should I get 171 or even other ski such as TC?
