Line Prophet 80?

[Firegold]

I have been thinking about buying a pair of he Line Prophet 80, and I found a great deal. I was wondering if anyone has demo/has these ski and how they like them, also I have demo the public enemy in a 179 and I enjoyed the size but I dont wanna over do it. Which prophet 80 would be better; the 176 or the 186?

I ski mostly east coast, but I wanted these for when I go out west twice a year. I prob will use these some what in the park or want to just take some smooth runs w/ my family on blues. I heard they held up really well in hardpack.

Height: 5'10

Weight: 175

well i'll say right now i've never riddent them.

but i was thinking about getting them too there really stiff. so yeah the'd ride good on groomers.

i'd go with the 176 if i were you

 

[Firegold]

I took your advice and went w/ the 176. I go them for a great deal, thanks for your help.

get the prophet 100. there is no reason to ever ski an 80mm waisted ski.

 

[Silence]

considering you have already bought them - where did you get the deal

 

[n-o]

unless you live in ontario

 

[Firegold]

I live on the east coast, so powder is something I only see when I go out west. I think a 100 waist would be way to big for the Killington hard pack and ice im use to.

Also I got them off of ebay.

That's why I'll most likely be purchasing the Prophet 90 for next winter.

word!

 

[Tulley.]

ya dude i heard the 100's are crazy

 

[HiTz]

yea the 100s r very excessive for the east coast...the 80s will serve u well

 

[msmouse789]

the 100's actually carve really well when there's no pow at alta.

i'd say go with the 100's cause they're a more versatile ski.

 

[Firegold]

yeah but skiing e-coast ice would be horrible on a 100 waist. But thanks guys for the help.

 

[johanblaze]

no... not really.
