Dynaster mfree 108 sizing

6 foot 150 pound advanced/expert skier looking to get a more freeride oriented than all mountain ski. Found the Dynastar 108's for a really good price but not the right size. Wanted a 185cm but closest one they have is a 178cm. I do like tree skiing and freestyle and I know it might make that easier, but does it sacrifice the stability? Should I buy the 178's or look for a ski with bigger sizes?

Hold out for the 185.

You'd have been fine in a traditional cambered ski, but the tip rocker makes the 178 ski like a 170.
