Hey everyone, my good friend luckily makes custom skis and has started up a little company. I am purchasing skis from him this summer. I am 5,9 135-140 lbs. and a good skier. I currently have 171 Ar6's and like them a lot. I especially like to do jumps cliffs and the ocassional jibs. I was wondering what would be good dimensions and flex for a ski used for 6inches or more of snow, because I always go to sunday river and do not ski out west more than one or two times a year at most. Basically I don't want to get too fat. What do you think would be a good stiffness, length, width, shape, mounting point etc. I want the skis to be able to shred anything except for ice.
 
yes i agree ^^^ with oxymoron, but I don't want another park ski and out west I need something more than an ar6, basically there is no way I can turn down a custom ski for 300$, best friend rate, so I need to make a sick ski, its going to be my own pro model. haha
 
same dimmensions as the guns but a littel stiffer flex and fatter tip and wood core insted of that foam crap and mount them on adjustble bindings so you can chose your mounting point for the conditions
 
I spent all season on 189 seth's at Killington and Sugarbush. About 100mm sounds right for what you are talking about, maybe even a lttle wider.
 
dude make them the same as lizzies i ski at gore and whiteface and thats what im buying cuz i decided to get balls and get a big fat ski
