Lenght of skis??

[Jimbo1901]

Hey guys, just wanted to hear your opinion and preferences when it comes to the length of your park skis. How much taller are they than yourself? I'm 173 and just bought pretty stiff comp twintips in 176, and not sure if they are too long?

a lot depends on ability and use. I think in your situation you should be completely fine.

Personally I aim for skis to be my height or slightly longer

im 160lbs and ride 180cm, you are fine, if you are still learning there might be growing pains that you will overcome in a week or two. However, if you are just learning then you got the wrong ski to begin with.

I've been skiing my whole life and freestyle for 8 years and been on a couple of seasons as well switching between Salomon, Armada and Nordica. Some around 172 and some as short as 163. The ones I just bought are the Salomon NFX lab.
