You must not be too hard on ur skis, for those of us who go thru a minimum pair a year it’s just a waste of money to buy new especially a ski that’s over 700$

On3ps will last someone who’s skiing 60-70 days a year 2 years
 
What kind of ache? Do you know? Biggest tip is to take care of your knees and see what to do to make them last. If you fuck up your knees you will have 100 years of bad luck.

The Manogo's and Meeks are not much of a departure from Magnus's. Name changes are probably the biggest changes. It's not like these ski's were designed by their namesakes.
 
The mangos have a different shape and are more flexible, if they keep the Meeks the same then that would be sick.
 
I find that my legs will feel width more than length. My technique (or lack of) feels length more, if that makes sense.

I think it's because of the angle to get leverage on a skis edge is greater with wider skis and my knees feel that. Long skis might even be easier on your knees since they'll be a bit more stable and smoother at speed.

Long way of me saying that I'd go for the 181.

@some on3p riders, how long are your skis and how tall are you then? Im 163cm and currently on jf96 in 161. Question is now if I should move up to the 166cm ones. thanks :)

Yes.

I'm the same height and I had 161 On3p for my first twin tips. For the first month or two they were fine for learning but they quickly felt way too short and they didn't handle speed well.
