Greg, not sure if you caught it at the start of this thread, but I rented a pair in Utah last week, and REALLY liked it. It was last year's model, too.  All the shop had was shorter lengths, and I think the one I was on was a 172.  Still, it was a lot of fun - great quick and short turns possible on the groomers, which amazed me for a ski with a 20m radius.  Lots of energy in the tail, which I love in a ski.  Off-piste it was fun, but too short, unfortunately.  The 178 that I'm getting should be much better in every way.  Really looking forward to getting it.
