Open to any suggestions

Im getting completely custom skis and im wondering if this is a good idea -

120 - 134 - 118 - 128 - 118

tip waist tail

so early taper tip and tail, i cant decide where to put the widest point, what would it be like closer to the tip or the middle between the tip and binding?

I want 55mm of rocker in the tip and 45mm in the tail, and have the contact points on the widest points of the skis, 5 or 10mm of camber?

I want the skis to be for powder, soft, they dont have to carve like race skis but i want to be able to carve somewhat, I want to hit backcounty jumps, i want to stick AT bindings on them and hike

Yaa so are they a good idea or what shud i do?
 
2 questions.. how did you come up with those dementions? and why do you want custom skis? there are a lot of good skis out there
 
he probably found a ski he likes, with those dimensions, but just wants to be able to tell people they're custom.
 
I didnt want HUGE powder skis and i want a really playful surfy ski for soft snow, i modeled it off a couple different skis like the Bibby Pro. Well I get completely custom skis from this guy i know pretty good who is just starting his company and the skis will be 500$ soooo i thought it was a pretty good deal
 
If you're dead set on going full custom, make the rocker to those specs, and make the widest points your contact points, then adjust what your waist width/tip and tail widths are until you get a radius you like. Te radius will affect the way it skis much more than a small dimensional change.
 
No i thought of these by myself if u find a ski that matches this please tell me, i think im gonna have less early taper and closer to the tip, i dont want opeses cause they are way to expensive, will somebody just give me suggestions or tell me how this is going to ski?
 
Insists on going custom, after paying $500 HOPES it will ski like the Bibby PRO

Insists on going custom, then asks about dimension sizes and rocker on a forum.

 
www.skilogik.comthese guys do custom skis that look so sweet with wood veneer on top. and they have some skis that are actually very very similar to your dimensions.

But they will do everything custom if you want to.

I have the Howitzers and the Rockstars and love them
