i have some liberty predators for sale...there 160cm...just cuz ur a girl dosn't mean u need a women specific ski...

 

[jjibs1219]

^ totally, if you can handle a mens ski then i would suggest that but if you want a womens ski then i would suggest the shadows, my girlfriend skis them and loves them...but i dont know anything about you...weight height or skill so i cant say for sure, there just a good ski

 

[caro.dillon]

i dont think that girls should be restricted to girls skis. i think that guys skis are more stable and stuff. i mean girls skis and guy skis are pretty much the same except the graphics are different, they're pretty much the same

Here was a good thread that contained just about every womans ski made.

my sister is 5'2 and about 115 i would guess. She rented missy's when we went out west and loved them. Her and i charged the mt that week and they deffinately worked for her. One day we got 2 ft and she had no problem floating hwile i used my scratches and sank like a rock. We also got in the park a bit and she said they were comfortable in their too, shes dece in the park and can throw 5s and shit so i trust her when she says they were good. She boards more than she skis now, i know its sad, but other wise i think she would have bought them.

 

[poofartpee]

deff ARW over shadows if u want a do all ski

 

[mistymoo]

im 5'2'', 110 pounds and a pretty agressive skier.

 

[mistymoo]

in answer to that other qustion.. i ski about 30% park, 40% groomers, and the other 30% is powder.

 

[whattheshit]

181 mad trix (2001) with p10's

 

[lyndon]

um, shes 5'2

 

[meliskier]

i'm about your size, and i ride a pair of 152 shadows mounted with look nova bindings. i only used them for 5 days last season so they are in great shape. pm me if you are interested & i also could get you a pair of new 157 shadows if you want. =)

 

[yelsel]

^ yeah i am too. except i ride 169 fujis and love them!! try em out or i highly recommend the nancys and the missdemeanors

 

[mistymoo]

Thanks guys im liking all the ideas

 

[Line80]

deff go w/ the arw prolly one of the better girls skis on the market and it does about anything u want it to

 

[poofartpee]

there usually a hell alot softer to thoe

 

[Ryanvdonk]

i'd like to say that if you want a fatter ski that spayer BCs would be good.

 

[Tha_Grouch]

I agree. That or line celebrities. or shadows. or an ARV 165.

 

[mistymoo]

im thinkin k2 nancy

 

[a-g-b]

I have an old pair of line mother ships(162) if you are interested....message me back

 

[babysteeze84]

Line skis do fall apart, but if you are not going to be extremely hard on them, aka wrack yourself on rails and boxes, they should be okay. I ride K2 Fujitives, 159's. It's all personal preference.

^thats BS. Last years line's did have a few problems, but that can all be attributed to first year production by new employees in a new factory in a new country. Next years lines are gonna be rock solid.
