Does any one know what the dimensions of the ant pro model are for this year. I wanted to get the 4frnt msp 190's but i really think the graphics dept have had a shocker this year so i'm being shallow and looking at some other skis if they are similar dimensions and feel etc, Cheers
 
how tall are you, how much do you weigh, what is your skiing ability and are you gonna use them for pure pow?
 
Hey, i'm 193cm and weigh 87kg sorry not sure what this is in pounds. Yeah mostly pow/crud. Do you think that these could be too wide and jp/julians might be a better option if not in the super fluffy stuff so offen. I would like a reasonable stiff ski so it hold up when i'm giving it.cheers
 
Umm don't take just my word for it but I don't think you can go wrong with either of them...
 
ANTs will be a waaaay different ski than the MSP. The ANTs are basically the burliest twin ever made.
 
The width difference between the ANT and JPvsJulien is negligible, 3mm. The thing you're going to want to decide is how stiff you want your skis. You're pretty heavy, but the ANTs are a beefy stick. Different ski than the MSP for sure.
 
87 kg is roughly 192 pounds. You don't need me to tell you that you are a big guy. I think the JP vs Julien will wash out too much....also I think if you ski crud, the Juliens will get a little scary.

The ANTs would be a good ski for somebody your size, but you will probably need to train. These planks are s-t-i-f-f.

As far as being the burliest twin ever...they're close...but the Head Supermojo might top them. ANTs also have minimal sidecut. Minimal sidecut + no flex = a ski that isn't willing to turn. These sticks are all about pointing it and given 'er.

That said....I really want some too....and the graphics are sick.
 
^I'm actually heavier on that and on Jp vs. Juliens, and orig pistols actually... soft skis, and they're fine, they do what they're made to do. But I agree, in crud a stiffer plank would be better.
 
I wouldn't call them soft, but they aren't quite as stiff as the ANT.

The 190 VCT is a sick f'ing ski though.
 
Cool. I was under the impression they were meant to be on the soft side, like a big urban jib stick. But I have not seen any of the 06 4frnts in person as yet.
 
Isn;t the 190 VCT alot different then the 182? the 190 is noticebly stiffer and thicker...
 
The VCTs have sick graphics, they are made for throwing skins on them, they are fairly stiff....but it's hard to find them under 775 dollars.

Which is a lot more than the ANTs
 
That is a VERY good point. Looking at the Vinnie's last week I was stoked until I saw the price tag.

I'll be impressed if I see anyone actually riding them this year (by anyone I mean anyone who actually paid full price for them).
 
look at the surface 190 fat a litte but more sidecut and the perfect flex for what you gonna be doin!
