Decision between skis

[ijibgoremtn]

ok tough decision here, but lookin for a fatty fat fat fat park ski

so its bewteen seth's or seth vicious i think they are the same in a 179

seth pistols 179

or lizzies

any imput on which im should get im 5'8 125 lbs and the ski is center mounted and its for east coast and my 4frnt 412's are wide enough or still big enough to bend them for all of these skis

 

[VTPE]

you're 5'8" and need a 100 waisted 179 com powder ski in the east? i hope you ski jay, stowe, mad river or one of the few eastern mtns that gets tons of snow. you dont really new a skis that big for the east. thats a big mountain set up....not many big mountains out here.

 

[ijibgoremtn]

trust me thats what it says these are park skis that can go in pow also fat is where its at so much more fun

 

[teamsleep]

a lot of ppl in the east have fat skis

there not only for pow

 

[poofartpee]

lizzies or bacons my man...those would be killer for park

 

[chrismoJBEATS]

sehts

 

[rocktheLPs]

wait for anthems

 

[Peter.]

lizzies, prophets, bacons if you have the $$$

 

[ijibgoremtn]

seth's are actually the most expensive and i think prophets are a wee to stiff

 

[ijibgoremtn]

bump havent gotten many helpful replies but anthems sound good but i want a super fat park ski

 

[poofartpee]

man the bacons or lizzies would be the best! there very fat, but at the same time very soft and nimble!!!

 

[hollygrove]

bam

 

[Skipig25]

ooh

 

[ijibgoremtn]

bumpity might be getting seth vicious with s912ti's for cheap any suggestions i do like a 2nd opinion

 

[skier24]

deifinitely go with the Seths

 

[tjski]

go 181 ARV's, or whatever size they have around 180ish. they are fat and a good park ski, especialy the new ones, they are light and fuckin soft.

 

[ijibgoremtn]

yea i think lizzies are lookin like my ski of choice right now cuz they ski outside the park awsome and are dank in the park

 

[VTPE]

i ski the east and love fat skis....nothing i ski is under 82 mm. but i really think anything over 95 mm under foot and over your head, is just over kill for east coast skiing.

 

[Sholte]

lizzys, best ski ever, im gonna get some

If you want to use these for PARK, then here are some reasons that Lizzies will be better than Seths:

-Lizzies are almost symmetrical (back tip is very close to the dimensions of the front tip, much more so than the Seth series), so they will ride switch smoother.

-Lizzies have symmetical flex which is more park oriented, while Seths have freeride flex which is more like your standard powder ski

-Lizzies have a reccomended mounting point almost dead center. This means that the sidecut is centered very close to center, which will make swicth riding easier. Also, they will perform better if you want to mount them dead center because you will be very close to the sidecut center, much more so than the Seth.

Now, these things are all true for the Anthem as well, which someone mentioned. The main difference here is width. Athems are a huge 93 waist, but the Lizzies are 110, that's as big as it gets for a park ski. If you want to go super fat in the park, Lizzies are what you want.
