I'm 5'8" 170 and I'm looking at the tropic thunders. I'm an intermediate rider and will be doing mostly park at mt hood in oregon. 50/50 on jumps and rails. I'm afraid the 171cm will be too short and the 178cm too big. Any words of wisdom?
Do you think that you'll grow more? And do you plan to centermount them? If yes, than I'd recommend the 178s, as Js ski pretty true to size and I think you'll end up being happier on them.
