Im 5foot 5 and weigh 50 kilograms 110 ponds im and advanced to expert ski and i want one ski that can be good in the park good in powder good switch riding and not to bad versitility. i know theres nothing that can do it all but i would appreciate it if u could recomend the closest thing to my needs.

p.s im looking at k2 obsethed but im worried its to heavy?

cheers guys!
 
LIberty Hazmat; probably 164 because you are teeny.

You asked for a one ski quiver; and that's what that ski is made for.

It's light and is good generally; you would enjoy.

You are gonna be stoked with the obsethed. get the 69 or 79. at first they will seem huge but just stick with it. it takes a little time to ski park on a big ski. if you need more proof of how well they work watch the montage inc vids. http://www.vimeo.com/3168519 - powder edithttp://www.vimeo.com/2816438 - park edit
 
I second this. The 08 is sick IMO, the 90 waist is better for park than the 100, but the newer ones are just as dope.

I have mine mounted -1 from center, they rock in the park and can still float pow decent because of the big shovel in the front. Go for it.
 
Anything around 90 to 100 underfoot is what you're looking for. Flex is what you prefer, but too soft will suck in powder, and it's hard to find a 95mm underfoot ski that's super soft. For the switch in powder riding thing, rockered will help a lot, but you'll lose it on the carves. Just look at what models people suggest considering what you're looking for
 
=(

Makes me sad since the bacons already ski so short. 182 feels perfect for me at 5'11''.. but due to the tapered tails and tips the ski's contact points make it feel so much shorter.

You guys who still have a large amount of growing to do might regret going 172s..
 
i rode on the 2008 k2 seths a few times. they are really good all around. you might have a hard time getting used to them in the park but its doable.
 
fuck it go w/ the JJ's. will take some getting used to in the park, but the ski is sooooo sick that u def won't regret it, go 185 skis super short
 
Uhhhh....what? Soft skis are awesome in powder, it's their true domain. That and the fact that he is 110 lbs means even those soft skis aren't gonna be all that soft.
 
mono skier! haha yea there was a woman at my local hill rockn the mono ski, and a 1piece, both probably over 30 years old hahaha
 
i strongly suggest this, most of the other skis being suggested are noodles outside the park if you want to charge at all.

unless you want a really soft ski, i suggest the s5's which are mid flex.
 
well this will be the only ski i have but i think it should be more powder orientated as powder is what i enjoy most right? the obsethed seems good as i know it can charge, it can float pow and it can go alright on groomers, what are your thoughts on it in the park. and also; can the bacons charge at all ?
 
if you want a more park specific ski that can still do decent in the powder, check the line anthem

also look at the kung fujas
 
i heart my line blends over all great all mountain solid in the park and one i have a pow day dont even need a extra pair of skis slays pow
