Looking for some ski length advice for the K2 Dispatch 101. I am 6 feet 185 lbs and am an aggressive skier. I will be using this ski for spring touring in the alps so I am looking for a ski that gives confidence in tight steep couloirs with variable chunky snow as well as long glacier descents. Given the long turn radius (26m), the metal construction, and some of the tight terrain I will ski I was thinking the 182cm would a good size. I’ve never skied anything closer to 190 cm before. Looking for advice from someone that has tried this ski.

I already own a pair of Black Crow Atris 184cm x 108 mm (50/50), Nordica Enforcer 185 cm x 100 mm (resort).

thanks!

Sorry this slipped through the cracks. Considering the information you provided, the 182 will likely work well for you. Go for it!
