Whats gucci NS!

I need some new pow/all mountain skis and I narrowed it down to these three (keep in mind I'm buying last years) and will like a comparison between the three. I need a pow ski that can also carve pretty well and can also shred a little bit in the park from time to time (I have my pure park). I consider myself an advance skier Im 6'0 (still growing a little bit) and 140 (skinny motherfucker). I ski at Mt. hood and sun valley( this is where the carving comes in to play). Also size wise for the three, for the YLEs I was thinking 187s but for the Shreditors I dont know if I should go with the 179s or the 189s.

Thanks and +k for good answers
 
had exact same questions as you, was looking at the YLE and they supposedly carve really well, they are just a huge park ski pretty much
 
seams like the 112 might be a happy medium. ive actually never ridden the three you listed (looking at maybe picking up a pair of 112s though) but i have ridden around all three waist widths. the 112 will be good for basically all but the deepest days. my old jeffery's are fine up until about 25cm+ in which case id like something a bit wider but not at the expense of being able to rail turns on tracked out and hardpack. imo the 102 is kinda a waste unless its your only ski but you mentioned you also have a pair of park skis

Unfortunately I wasn't able to get on the yles this weekend. I had 3 new pairs of skis to try and they just didn't get out. But they seem killer. If it were me I'd go k2 112 of YLES. But I might be on the YLES this weekend too haha
 
need to know soon!

if anyone can give input that would be great

also size wise can any help me?
 
Check out 4frnt Devastator, 108 underfoot and probably more versatile in all conditions including park than the other skis mentioned. K2 shredditors are soft, really soft.

I got on my yles yesterday and I love them. You should too and you should get them. Handled knee deep pow fine, high speeds, chop, jumps, and landing switch is just too fun on these things. I'd go for it man. Also I think you were 6'0 140? I'm 5'7.5 and 125 and the 177 were awesome. Never felt out of control. So I'd say 187 for you.

4frnts recommended line. Which is -2.5

Anyone considering getting these needs to get them. They're just plain fun. And if you want to see some skiers on them you should watch Wiley's edits(duh), sander hadley before he got sponsored by ON3P, and Ryan vitale.
 
I have the 112s, so much fun! I've been riding them in the park a lot recently, sooo jibby and buttery. I'm 6' 160lbs so not that much difference. I ride the 179 (which measures to a 181ish BTW) and think they're perfect. They like to make big railing turns on groomers if you roll them on edge. Tons of rocker so they're great off piste too. Just my two cents, hope it helps.
 
I'd say go with the 112's I just bought a pair and I love them, so far iv mostly did park on them but the park is at the bottom of the hill so I have to take the groomers to get to it, and it handled really well on them, It was weird at first since I am used to riding on 85mm park skis, and since the 112 is a lot wider you kinda have to roll off you foot more if that makes sence. But other then that they were really fun, I like to butter and do 180's and 3's when I go down the groomers too and they handled that way better then I expected they arnt soft but since they have that early rise of a pow ski they just really easy just to lean back or forward and get the tips off the ground, I can throw them around just as easy as my old skis and they are way more stable for landing. In the park they are pretty sick, they are really stable on boxs and rails, I usually have the probelm with catching an edge or leaning too far back and with thoes skis I never did, presses come naturally and 270's arnt too difficult and I could still throw them around easier then my twin k2 sights in the air. I have only been able to take them in pow for a little bit, but when I did they were a lot of fun.
