My 2011 quiver: question

So I have decided to buy a pair of Moment Rockers. I am 5'9" exactly

(175.26cm) and weigh about 140 lbs, but by next season I will probably

have put on a lot more in muscle (P90X ftw). So my first dilemma is:

do I buy this year and get a 181cm ski, or next year and get a 178cm

ski?

Keep in mind the changes they're making to the ski next year:

-Smaller tip profile for decreased swing weight (also less float, which is not so cool)

-Carbon stringers this year (makes it stiffer? I need it to be playful: butters, presses, all that good stuff)

-Super-durable topsheet

-Graphic doesn't suck anymore

I made a thread about whether I should get them in a 171 or 181 this

year, and almost everyone said to get the 181, so I'm wondering if 178

will be too short (since the ski is rockered, after all). If it is,

then I'll accept the not-so-hot graphic and get them this year.

In other news, I'm really interested in the Icelantic

Da'Nollies for next season (If I can get enough money for them, which I probably won't be able to), but

would 170 be too short for me? Because I'm almost certain that 180 would be

too long for a traditional cambered park ski.

Thoughts?
 
do you know how little 3 cms is?
i guarantee you will not notice a difference between the two... so, you should probably go for whatever one you think will be better or you like more? haha, i don't know. 09/10 will be cheaper
 
It's about...this much. *holds thumb and forefinger roughly 3 centimeters apart*

Lol but I know what you mean, I have a friend who can get me a discount so price will be the same for both.
