please dont make fun of my weight and no im not an anerexic... since you people seem to think its fun to make fun of me

 
You need to get some steriods first. A man of your stature will snap if you start skiing. No hard feelings though

 
go with some line, they are so light...

'Moi c'que j'propose c qu'on envoye chier l'monde, on leur paye une criss de traite'
 
Don't get Head or Volkls at your size. You just have enough power to handle a ski of theirs at your proper size. I'm not trying to be critical, its the truth.

Look into something like the Troublemakers in a 182 if you want a mostly park ski or the Scratch BCs also in a 182 if you want a little more all mountain.

I am in the same boat as you. I am 5'11' at 112lbs. I have Rossignol Scratches and they're really nice I have tried the line mike nick and they're really light and easy to move around in.

If The women don't find you handsome... atleast they will find you handy

I'm 5'11' and I weight 165. Do you think that 165's are too short? Should I go with 210's? blaaahhh. I think that someone should make a big document and stick it on the main page that tells everyone just what they're going to here 1000 times. no offence to the guy who started this. I asked questions like this when I started on NS, but really, what do people here know about you or how you ride. your best bet is to go to a shop, talk to the guy, ask him about what skis have what stiffnesses, ask about different lengths, ask if he knows if people about your size have said anything after riding some skis. Some people say some skis (1080's) get noodly if bigger guys use them hard. Do you land backseat alot? that gonna soften them too, so maybe stiffer would be better. who knows? not me.

i'm 6'3 and way 160

As i awoke this evening with the smell of wood smoke clinging

Like a gentle cobweb hanging upon a painted tepee

Oh i went to see my chieftain with my warlance and my woman

For he told us that the yellow moon would very soon be leaving

This i can't believe i said, i can't believe our warlord's dead

Oh he would not leave the chosen ones to the buzzards and the soldiers guns

 
6 feet tall, get a 180 ski maby high 170, garunteed to suit you fine, but try and find a light ski, you dont weigh to much

*NORTHEAST CULT*

peter:'Dont worry i got an idea, an idea so smart my head would explode if i even began to know what I am talking about.

dude i talked to them about it and they said 'our budget doesnt alow it' fuck that.....they just think im ugly-bristolrider

 
we can supersize you!

Jeepers Creepers, where'd you get the neat sneakers?!?!

hehehe giggle giggle giggle

 
Length doesn't depend as much on your height/weight as it does on your skiing. How good are you and what are you gonna do on your skis? That's what matters.

Stacie: 'Aren't you going to open your gift?'

Wayne: 'If it's a severed head, I'm going to be very upset.'
 
How about I don’t kill myself. Sounds like you have got a complex about your skinny little frail, fragile body my friend. I would take much pleasure in using my superior weight and height to break you tooth pick legs, and using them for my own ski poles. But my shitty stolen rental poles would be stronger, so lucky for you I will leave you in peace. Poofter.

 
i thought he was kidding when i read the topic

a male gynocologist is like an auto machanic who doesnt own a car
 
im 6' also (just like 3 mm under) and im on 178's

Jeepers Creepers, where'd you get the neat sneakers?!?!

hehehe giggle giggle giggle

 
Im the smae height as you and I only weigh like 10 15 pounds more than you and i ride pe's. they work real nice, and when I got them they were fine and i probabbly weighed the smae as you.

 
im 5'6 and rode a 177, now a 170 and 174

Hey V-Pro, go fuck yourself. I'm 6'3 and 145. Doesn't matter to me. To quote Santana 'It's the city where the skinny niggaz die--Nope! The city where the skinny niggaz ride, fo five semi automatics on their sides.' Plus I can stomp you in basketball.

Supachronic. Back off bitch. What makes you think you can whip me in B-ball when you have no idea who I am. I am 6'3 and 220. But you probably could beat me at basketball as I fucken hate the game. What is this thread, revenge of the spinals. Finally the people that get the shit rip out of them all day, every day for being a bean-pole can get all staunch and tough behind the key board. What is the matter, you taken one to many hidings today at School and need to outlet you fury. Any way, good luck on making the NBA, if you grow a little taller my anorexic friend, you could hold a hoola-hoop in the air for the hoop, and use your ugly mug for the backboard.

 
and i used to ride 165 candides until i grew about 5 inches so now im buyin 176's

and guys weight really doesnt matter... someone that is 120 can have just as much power or more than a person that is like 160...

V-Pro, at your school is it survival of the fittest or something? This kid was just asking for advice, you take the opportunity to be a complete asshole even when he specifically asked not to be made fun of. I guess you just couldn't resist. That's why I'm 'on you.'

Only kidding, I think you should go for a ski in the 170-180cm range. That's pretty much the average for most people on here. Since you're tall but skinny, 175cm or so should be good. I bought 175cm and I'm 6'1 200lbs and they feel too small when I'm riding em, so 175cm should be good for you.
