Could anyone help me figure out what ski would be good for me? I love Gilson fusions and want a somewhat soft ski but not one that will slip out if I land a little backseat. There are tons of options on the market that I would love to use, problem is, I’m 6’4(193cm) and still growing. I would probably need skis atleast 189cm and will still probably outgrow them within a season. I ski park probably 90% of the time. anybody have any ideas of what ski I could use?
 
I mean if you're only gonna have them for a season then probably just get something cheap second hand mah doood
 
I second this. Get last years k2 rekoners for like 300 bucks or some surfaces. Cheap , fun and prolly won’t last very long

Yea I was looking at those. I just don’t need a 112 underfoot and the 102 only goes up to 184cm. I’m thinking about vishnus

They have some screaming armada deals. You can get new ARV86s in the same size and year for the same price that I got them for when COVID first hit and shops liquidated inventory

Honey badgers r rlly soft
 
Honestly if you're mostly skiing park, you don't need your ski to be a 190 even. It depends on what you want in terms of style but for learning and progressing when it comes to park and tricks, it's easier to learn on a shorter, lighter ski in my opinion. I'm not a huge park skier but this year I'm planning to do it a bit more. ON3P does run longer than other companies so a 191 of theirs would be the longest if you're looking for that, but you'd probably be fine on a 189 Vishnu. (6'4 here too, 1.95 cm)
