Chronic Cryptonite

[justmike]

I need some advice. I'm 5'6" and am thinking about buying the chronic cryptonites. I ski 40% park, 50% groomers and 10% trees and pow. I don't know if I should get the 163's or 173's. Do you think the 173's would be too big for me?

Also, what is the difference between the cryptonite's and just the regular chronics?

get 173's

 

[justmike]

you don't think they will be too big for me ?

 

[FerrisBueller]

if your previous ski was anywhere from 140-150 get 163 if they were bigger than 150, get the 173's

also if you are only skiing 10% powder than buy the line afterbangs they are much better for that type of skiing, especially if you do a lot of rails and less jumps.

 

[FerrisBueller]

oh and 173cm = 5'8" just saying

 

[justmike]

yea but aren't afterbangs pretty much only for park ?

 

[FerrisBueller]

why would you not be able to do 10% pow and some groomers on amazing pow skis?

ive read this thread like 3 times and i think you meant on park skis, not pow skis haha

 

[FerrisBueller]

yeah you r right i messed up

 

[Balto]

afterbangs are by no means amazing park skis....

 

[FerrisBueller]

[justmike]

so do you think i would be good with chronic cryptonites or would they be too big ?

Alpha 1's are a great ski for park and can kinda ski powder because rocker, maybe try them out.
