161 or 171?!! Karma

[sstricky]

so i am getting some invaders for next season for 100% park and i have no idea whether to get 161s or 171s. i am about 5'8" and 130 pounds. i wont be hitting many big jumps like nothing over 30 feet so what do you guys think i should do??

 

[Codfish.]

i would go 176 because with the centermount they will feel shorter

 

[sstricky]

hmmm... but 176 i feel is a bit long...

 

[sstricky]

plus its 178 not 176

 

[Codfish.]

well i think wither way 161 will be like ski blades. but you are better off a little bigger than way too small

 

[Codfish.]

my bad i thought it was 176

 

[sstricky]

yea good point. 171 it is.

Ya go with the 171's you wont regret it.

umm im 5'9 140 pounds and i am rocking 178 invaders. You def should to, since there center mounted its gonna feel smaller, and since invaders are soo noodly to begin with your gonna want that extra length for jumps, even on 30ft jumps its gonna help. I am going from 161's invaders (last year) to 178's, the 161's were way way too short, so i def say 178, but 171's are fine to. Would be easier for rails.

[JonathonChandler]

171 for sure. 161 are just too small. and the 171 will be perfect
