hi everyone

i’m 6’ 160 lbs and want to buy mango 90’s for next season. i’m currently riding 180 bdogs and wonder if i should go 186 on the on3p’s for the stability and charging ability or go for 181 for the lower swing weight

please help me i am lost thank you
 
you could go either way because you're quite light. I don't think you will notice the swing weight difference to be honest.

how do you like the length of your B dogs?

well at first it was okay but they got SO soft it became a literal handicap like i have absolutely 0 control on landings so its hard to say because on3p’s are stiffer (so i heard)

personally i would recommend you to get the 186, but if you really liked the length of the B dogs at first than you can get 181 if that is your preference. 186 is for sure the more traditional way to go for your height tho so that’s my rec
 
186 I was in the same boat. Email on3p and listen to their advice. They said I could get away with a 181 but I would have to land on my bolts every time because of my height and the leverage I would be putting on the ski. With that said I went 186 and there wasn’t a big difference between the 181 and the 186 filthy rich to mango I have now
 
Go for 181. You want park skis to be a couple cm shorter than your height (forehead/eyebrow height) because a shorter ski is more agile for spins and swing weight in the park.
 
Keep in mind that On3p measures true to length while Armadas measures short. A 180 bdog measures closer to 178. So even if you get a 181, your skis will be 3 cm longer than your 180 bdogs.
