Which Model, Width, year? I dont know. I am going to put Touring bindings on them.

 

[Vicious]

Model T/190 mm/1943

 

[FREESKIER_FIVE-0]

Funny

 

[Vicious]

well how big are you and where will you be skiing

ps...you set yourself up for that

 

[FREESKIER_FIVE-0]

im 5 feet 10 inches, 185 pounds skiing tarhgee, jackson hole, and backcountry. already have park skis

 

[Vicious]

Elizabeths are way too small for you.

I'd suggest Made'ns out of those three.

 

[Vicious]

Oh, and obviously 189 length for where you are.

 

[FREESKIER_FIVE-0]

Next year line comes out with sir francis bacons that are elizabeths in 186 i think.

Thanks though.

 

[Vicious]

I know that. And I think they are a 182.

Made'ns are still a better call.

 

[FREESKIER_FIVE-0]

if im goin with somethin that long, what about ants or jp vs. juliens agains madnak

 

[Vicious]

I prefer both the ANTs and JPs over Made'ns as they have less sidecut. The ANTs are noticeably stiffer than the JPs and Made'ns as well and are obviously much more stable if you are ripping.

 

[Vicious]

not for touring

 

[tsuji]

if ur skiing jackson hole, id go with a directional big mointain stick. get the super mojos, b4's, or ledgends

 

[FREESKIER_FIVE-0]

I want to ski switch a lot

180s off cliffs and cornices are like my favorite thing ever

 

[FREESKIER_FIVE-0]

if anyone has any other suggestios for other skis id like to hear it

[bhill2.0]

Thats what the 3 kids i ride with ride, funny

 

[A_E]

defiitly madens

 

[BCKicker540]

ANTs will treat you right, or madens. flex both and see which you like better

 

[Love_Wins.]

Check out this years JP Vs. Julien...sick as hell for skiing switch cause of the huge tail, and for touring they would be easy to haul around seeing as how they are actually lighter than the T-Halls, even at 191cm.

 

[FREESKIER_FIVE-0]

Thanks everyone for helpin. I guess im lookin at madn ak, prophet 100, ant, jp vs. julien

any more suggestions on which of these or other skis?

 

[FREESKIER_FIVE-0]

whats the flex like on the jp vs juliens?

 

[Vicious]

softer...similar to the made'ns

 

[.[sanhedrin].]

Vicious:

which do you prefer between the Made'n and the JP?

And why?

 

[Vicious]

Neither...both are too soft, but if I had to pick one, probably the Made'n.

 

[Jib_This]

That's pretty debatable, and probably due to the tail.

If you noticed, they hadn't actually changed the JpVSJ this year (188cm), from last year, when it was a 191cm ski....hmmm...

 

[FUUUCK]

id go with the prophets
