gear talk, and 160 surface nextlifes would be perfect for you.

[a_pla5tic_bag]

it's happening at younger ages theses days

The Bentchetler mini hands down. On top of the (of course the larger version for me, haha) Bentchetler being a sick pow ski, the EP Pro is an awful ski.

My opinion which was shared by several others who rode both.

 

[gombo8]

i liked the ep pro when i demoed it. dropped one small cliff like 8 feet and washed out...went back and demoed the chopsticks and bought some used ones the week after

 

[Tablespoon]

162 bacons?

 

[Jonny.Ski]

Anything in the 160s would be far too big IMO, I'm on 169 and I'm 5'7

 

[wesley.]

mad small skis dude. im 5 foot and i have 165s. bigger skis are baller/more fun/exquisite/wonderful

 

[Jonny.Ski]

Mine come above my head..

 

[Dustin.]

My girlfriend is that height and only 125 lbs and she rides 172. Hit the weights man!

 

[egg.]

out of the 2 then the ep pro shorty's. i have them but i havent got to ski them because i broke my leg and they came in the mail the day i got surgery

ep pros

 

[bluegavin269]

good thing 169 cm is 5'5" and you said your 5'7". I'm 5'8" and riding 177 abangs, im an inch taller and my skis are 8 cm taller and right at the top of my head
and for the thread anything in the mid/high 160's would be good to you and as far as the ski i havent ridin either, because i live in MI but i have only heard good things about the ep pros

 

[Dustin.]

Why would anyone ever recommend something they haven't ridden?

 

[howlongcanausern]

could be the best purchase of your life; if you truly ride pow consistently

 

[Jonny.Ski]

Ill take a picture then man, you're right but they're above my head

 

[I.B]

Dude i just farted and it HELLA smells

 

[Dustin.]

At slow speeds and it's knee deep and fresh at all times. Then they'll be awesome. Otherwise a pussy ski.

[howlongcanausern]

meh not really, like with so many other things, all depends on how you ride them

i ride fresh everyday, so they work great for me and your tips will never dive

 

[AGOF]

this is mostly an issue of a skier being able to handle his shit. some people can charge on eps and some can barely make a turn in pow on them.

 

[Gstrong]

you're a noob, im 5'6 and ride 172 and 171 there fine.

Don't listen to this guy

 

[no_steeze]

my friend's 13 year old brother hotboxed her car

 

[Rhys.Peice]

wtf im 13, 5'2, and 100 lbs and i ride 168

 

[B-runge]

just pointing it out that you did the same thing. Im not well informed on the subject but ep minis and bentchetler minis are completely different than their bigger brothers

to op. Get surfaces kids pow ski, its actually rockered and sick

 

[.Duncan.]

seriously, i demoed surface next lifes and really liked them they are a great ski.

check out the S7's i hear great things about the S3 and S7, i assume your a good rider, and these are good powderskis, where you can throw down tricks too.
