How long skis you like?

[virgin]

Do you like your skis shorter/longer than you or same lenght? How does the lenght affect your skiing? Im 5'7 and I skied last season with 169 k2s, broke them and got cheap 175 coreupts. Lenght was good imo but considering a bit shorter skis for next season. Not sure yet Tell me your opinions

 

[Blake.P]

[Dr.Dickless]

Im 6'3" and I ride 171's all mountain 181's for powder

 

[SamMcChesney]

I am 6 feet tall and will be riding 181's this year.

 

[El_Barto.]

5'8 and I ride 182s, 186s and 180s

That makes me a better skier than you

 

[virgin]

What do you ride? And how do you like the longer ski?

 

[No.Quarter]

300cm go big or go home

 

[No.Quarter]

By the way did anyone else read the title in kind of a Borat voice. If not, try it

How do you like them?

 

[GrahamGould]

I generally just get the longest size available for whatever ski I get

 

[Pancake_Fucker]

I'm 5'11 and ride 179 hellbents. Next pow ski I'm going above 180 for sure

length

 

[radish]

5'10 150lbs 180 for park, 186 for pow

 

[Kreech]

5'11" I ski a 181 park ski (armada pipe cleaner) and a 191 pow ski (on3p caylor) and those seem to work fine for me. If you're a good enough skier to handle a bigger ski, the larger size will reward you with added stability, which is nice.

 

[virgin]

Does it affect alot the way you can butter/press?

 

[Kreech]

I never really butter/press on my pow skis, but presses on the pipe cleaners are still very doable.

 

[ThundaKilla]

Im 6'2", my cambered park skis are 182 and my rockered park skis are 186. If i was to buy pow sksi they would be 191s.

 

[Wolfgang.]

I ride skis a bit taller than me, I find landing is more stable and the riding feels smoother.

[virgin]

How do you like the domains?

 

[Lick]

6 feet tall.

I ride 181 thalls, and 159 codas for sick rail work (lol just kidding, i only ride those during our annual rail jam, which has a whole 4 people in it)

 

[profa_212]

I love them....my favorite ski thus far.

 

[broto]

how about some metric conversions sheesh

i'm 5'11 which is 180.3 cm and my jeronimos are 182 cm, perfect fit

 

[Balbertt]

I am also 6 foot, and also have 181 thalls. OMG TWINNING.

 

[EasyEast]

I'm 5' 8" and I ski 176/177 park skis mounted at center

 

[virgin]

How does butters/presses work on longer skis?

 

[HolySchimmel]

wish there were some park skis that are a bit longer than the average 185 max lenght. I'm like 1,96m and my pow skis are like 2cm bigger than me (self built skis). But for park I am on 185s atm and I feel like they could be a bit longer!

 

[Lemuel]

6'1" skied an 86 for park, 89 one lifes for pow but they are the smallest 89's ever.

 

[saskskier]

6'3-4" and I'm on 189 New Life's. generally I find the longest available length.

 

[c4t_l0ver]

if its the same height as me ill ride it for park, taller than me for pow. im like 5'10
