Dynastar Trouble Maker

Hi,

So I've been looking around for a pair of really cheap park skis, which would on the dry slope and park and pipe.

I cam across some Trouble Maker 2007 165, and I was just wondering if they would be OK for a couple of days of park use? Im 5ft 6 and 50kg. I'm slightly worried about the width and the age.

the trouble makers were some of the best park skis ever. if theyre in good shape and the price is right go for it

So the 78 waist is ok? There a fairly narrow ski or will this just make it easier to learn to ski in the park on?

78 under foot is fine. If you were planning to go to Alaska for a heli trip I'd say get something fatter. For a park ski they will be fine.

for pure park purposes? yeah for sure. i and many others prefer fatter skis nowadays but in terms of just park (and dryslope), i don't think there's much downside to having 78 waist

where do you ski? if it's somewhere that you'll be using these skis to ski other stuff and fresh snow you might want to consider something else but in terms of JUST park pipe and dryslope 78 is no problem at all

I'll be skiing in the monterosa area, but these will be a pure park ski. Ill be renting a fatter ski for off piste.

Thanks Callum

For 30 pounds? Fuck yeah!

Trouble Maker is still one of the best park, and especially pipe, skis ever produced. If the size works for you.
