I'm 6'4" 215 lbs and ski the 94s in a 186.  From what you describe I would not go shorter than that.

Definately the 186 for western canada.  I'm 6' and 185 and couldn't decide on length either.  I ended up on the 178 and they were a bit short and unstable in broken snow, so I've sold them and am on the hunt for a longer wider ski for trips out west.

i'm 5' 10", 200 and love the 186.  I find myself looking for slots between trees - its that manueverable in the soff stuff.   and more tail  is helpful IF you get in back seat or do some hucking.
