Thanks Jim. That makes it pretty clear that the right length for me is 188cm. I have the Watea 84's  (now my rock skis because of how beat up they have gotten) and the 176's feel short. As an all mountain knock around ski they are fine at that length but off piste at any speed they start to feel real short. I think however that you have got yourself the right sized ski. Since I beleive that you will be using these as a Western daily Driver all mountain ski (and will use them on non new snow days in the Rockies) the 178cm length is definitely the one. Since I will only be using mine in fresh snow the longer length seems necessary.

Again thanks for all the photos and mearsurements.

Anyone else ready for some skiing!!
