Alright...ive been doing my research and ive come to a stop lol. ive been looking at both of these skis. 2 very different companys and 2 very nice sets of skis.they both use a macroblock for the core and they both come in the size i need. 170, or close. The 4frnt's are a about 100 bucks more but im not worried about paying it. What are your views on this???

 
i have chronics and absolutely love them, but i've also heard rave reviews of the msp. i don't think you can go wrong either way, but the two skis are quite a bit different. the chronic is a straight up park ski where as the msp is stiffer and has the girth to hit up the powder as well. if you want an all mtn ski go with the msp, but if you want park only, then go with the chronic (or look into the 4frnt stl...another sick park ski)

 
my view is...if you have a kid thats icon is an advertisment for line and he's telling you the MSP is what you should get...then the MSP must be what you need.

 
if you get the chronics, go to the 177, as the huge tips make them run a little on the short side. you will be glad you did, adn they are so light you wont notice the extra ski in th air, only when you float through the pow

Pirate steeze, arrrr!
 
yup^, hes right. lines are shorter than normal, and the big tips make them ride shorter. but i would say STL, its the same price, WAY, WAY nicer, and more versitle. the Chron is a stiff ski, and alot of very good riders have problems doing tech stuff like butters, ollies, ect. the stl uses maple underfoot (the chron is all maple), but then transitions to aspen or something. it makes butters super easy, and it give the ski huge ollie power. dont think that the ollie band make the lines better. its a stiff ski, and is much more suited for big jumps than tech stuff. the stl can not only handle, but dominate both big hits and tech jibbing. awesome ski. i love mine.

i looked on google but all i could find was 3D Animation porn-sxmarty6

well if i got the 4frnts what size should i get...(sorry i am new to skiing twin tips.)I am 5'10' and i am around 150 ibs...what size???

 
you'd be good with either 170 or 180. since you're a bit lighter i'd go 170. i weigh the same as you and im the same height and i find my 170's are perfect, plus they go up to my eyes for height.

 
well i was starting to lean towards the stl's until i saw a guys 4frnts base strting to peel off in the ski forum section...i was appauled and i am now crtain that i will be purchasing the chronics.

 
^thats one in 10,000 bro. Just because that kid decided to post his mis fortunes dont let that scur you from the best skis in the market. Most kids that have problems w/there skis don't go and show the shit talking community of NS their deal. That kids ski is prolly defective
