I ski only in Europe mostly Austria. I am 6`1 tall and 160lb. I want some ski that will be able to ski all over the mountain. I am thinking about ON3P Kartel 106 and this years Moment PB&J but If you can recommend me any other ski I appreciate that I would love to pick some skis in spring sale. What do you think about 4FRNT because they have 40% off now so maybe Cody YLE or CRJ? Thanks for help Jacob
 
I just bought a pair of Line Blends, I think this would be a pretty good option, 100mm underfoor, quite soft in tips and tail and also good for park. Hope it helped

what do you think your mix of park to everything else will be? and what else will you be skiing? groomers, steeps, trees (tight?), pow (how deep?)?
 
I will ski groomers and just cruising around in park. I want that the ski can hold very well on hardpack and still be able to do well in pow. Mostly lift accessible so not extremely deep. Sometimes some trees but not extremely tight. What about the PB&J? and Thanks for help
 
the pb+j could be a good fit. id say probably stay in the 95-105 waist range give or take to be able to tackle anything. also don't get a noodle.

Ok thank you very much and when i am 185cm tall should i pick 188 cm or 182 cm?

Because you weight 160, I'd go with the shorter ski. Someone said on another three that your skis don't care how tall you are, but only know your weight. So the taller the skis, the more control you might lose.
 
I ski Mayrhofen and Tux. Mostly piste, park, some pow. My 178 al dentes do it all. You should demo the 188.
 
Ok thank you very much. But as i it looks like i will be forced to skis that are available in europe because when i wanted to order the PB&J there was like 240$ shipping so fuck that. So the options are Line(Blend?), Armada(al dente?), Faction(3.0?), K2(shreditor 102?), and i think i can find 4FRNT Cody in EU too so. what do you think?
 
For an all mountain ski the shredditor does great, super playful. I'm not saying its better than your other options, but its super fun on groomers and when there's ~4-5" of fresh. In deeper snow it floated surprisingly well.

I would do the 188. Moment measure 2cm short, so it would only be 1cm above his head. This combined with the rocker would be a perfect size ski for him. As long as he is a decent skier.

How they perform in park?

Anyone ride the Faction 3.0? Is 112mm too wide? In 14/15 there will be 2.0 and they are 102mm underfoot.

Sadly I can't get PB&J because of the 240$ shipping.
 
Are K2 durable I know they were doing durable skis but i heard that the Iron maidens were very bad in case of durability so how are the shreditors? And what about Line SFB someone skid them in the park, hardpack? I was thinking about Atomic too

You shouldn't have any problems with k2 durability. All of my k2s have held up extremely well
