Faction Skis

Thinking abt expanding my quiver--wanna get some factions. Thinking about either Mana 2 or Prodigy. For the Prod's, I'm stuck between the 1 and 2. Obviously the main difference is 88 underfoot on the 1's and the 98 on the 2's. If I went with the 1's, I'd go with 184--I'm 6'2. But for the 2's, is 189 too long for a dedicated park ski? I feel like 183 is reallyyyy short. Or should I just go with the Mana at 188?

I'd go with 189's cuz like in my opinion I'd never wanna go with a ski shorter than me 2cm taller is going to be good

I feel like a prod in a 184 vs a mana in a 183 shouldn’t be as big of a difference as you think it is, cuz you said 183 is “realllllly short” but 184 is only a centimeter longer….. anyway aside from that they’re also super different skis so take that into account as well, kinda depends what you want out of a park ski
 
I've heard factions warranty program is a joke in that you can get new skis very easily, especially if its through a shop. They might have changed it, worth looking into

Last week I got a second pair of warranty skis over 2.5 years after buying the original pair (their warranty is 2 years), so their coverage is still really really good. I submitted phone pics of a relatively small sidewall crack and they took care of me.
