i know about the search bar but it kinda doesnt work, most of the time you add your question to a hellbent thread and most of the people read the first post and skip everything and post a reply so heres my question.

i know a lot when it comes to skis and a pretty good amount when choosing my ski but i do have a question about these skis because there rocker'd and im not really sure how its supposed to work.....

i understand that these are suuuuper soft..... now if your a super big dood (240+) would they be toooo soft or with the technology would it not be that much of a problem. the only thing i can see is for charging suuuuper hard but these would be for the orgasmically deep days so that would kinda cancel that out am i correct or would you run into problems with the weight?
 
so super soft in the tips and tails????

(kid does tip stand and bends it 90 degrees) soooo its a stiff ski where the edge touches the snow

well i mean not STIFF but somewhat stiff?
 
Get the 189's and you should be fine. They will obviously suck for hard charging, but that's not what they are meant for.
 
yep, 189's, centermounted and buttery, no questions asked. the only problem you might find with em is that you're having TOO much fun to make you ever wanna use a normal ski again..
 
well my other skis are elizabeths so im sure i have been gettin handjobs instead of fresh virgin pooontang if you know what im sayin.....
 
Real nice choice for you, I tried some hellbents and didnt like them as much as the EP Pros, but EP Pros are waaaaaaaaaaaay noodley~
 
.

they are the best ski i have ever skied on. Whenever I ski on them I know I am going to have a fun day. They are really soft in the tip and tail and get progressively stiffer underfoot. At first I thought I might be disappointed but I LOVE them. The flex is perfect.

I am 6'2 and 170 lbs.
 
got em a few days ago, skied yesterday first day with them and going again tomorrow up at the bird. they are fucking amazing. ive never been so excited for a ski in my life. you will love them. so worth it.
 
you've heard very wrong, softest ski ive ever flexed... Still in a 189 it could probably support you. But if you want somthing stiffer wait for rossignols S7's next year.
 
damn this site and its bulizzions of bent threads, its pretty much just like my computer is laughing in my face. i want 189s soooooo bad.
