Park ski

[scott-skis]

i am looking for a new ski i ride like 80% park, and im 5'4 and 105 pounds

i am lookin at the ar6"s, the dumonts, the thrusters, or the STL, wat do u guys think?

 

[prisnah]

At your weight doing 80% park you can pretty much take the AR6 off your list.

 

[scott-skis]

alright wat about the others

 

[prisnah]

I dunno...thrusters or the STL's might work but doing that much park and being that light I think you need to rethink your whole list and go for something more buttery.

 

[Thomson.]

159 fujatives or 161 invaders (I think there 161....)

 

[AndyBill]

[theres_ghosts]

if you like fat skis than try lines elizabeth. it 110 but that what pollard uses for his park ski,. or thry the invaders

 

[scott-skis]

[tjski]

i dont think you could go wrong w/ some 171 dumonts..

 

[skiP.E.I.]

160-something Line Invaders, K2 silencers or Salomon Thrusters or Spk. just to let you know, www.proctorjones.com has 06/07 Spks 168 for $199

[scott-skis]

[scott-skis]

171 or 161?

 

[scott-skis]

come on people

 

[poofartpee]

thrusters or dumonts in the 150-160 range

 

[scott-skis]

alright they both come in 161's which ones would u guys recommend

 

[scott-skis]

how much are thos goin for and how soft are they

 

[scott-skis]

171's are u sure not 161

 

[derocha]

man get some rossi scratches i have the 07 wrs fs and its the best ski iv ever ridden comes in a 167 alot of the stores still have some of them and are sellin em cheap

 

[scott-skis]

those thigs look like shit and i think tyhey are really stiff

 

[scott-skis]

come on NS help me out

 

[invader7]

161 invaders or fujis. but you could probly go with dumonts

 

[Nighthawk]

out of your list probably the thrusters would be the best bet, but personally im about the same height/wight as you and i tried my friends pipe cleaners and love them

 

[bennymillz]

last season i rode 4frnt msp's 161 and i was about your size, probably heavier - i found them to be too stiff - go with a ski that would be easier to butter around - maybe salomon

 

[AndyBill]

FOR SURE>>> GET THESE SKIS

NINTHWARD BUTTERLICIOUS 160

SUPER CHEAP ONLINE LIKE $170

I LOVED THESE SKIS

GET THEM

 

[KravtZ]

if ur just buying a ski for park i would say def fugis or thrusters or spk's. dont wast the xtra money on an all mtn ski if ur not gunna ski all mtn

 

[AndyBill]

dude these are the skis for you...im soo serious

 

[scott-skis]

how wide are those because i saw a pic and they looked huge

 

[AndyBill]

the nithwards? they arent that wide at all i thikn they are 78mm underfoot

 

[scott-skis]

i think im goin with 161 dumonts anbody think thats not good

 

[paulbunyan]

personly i think you should go 171(thrusters) if you are still growing and if your gonna center them youll figure out there gonna be smaller than youd like i think.plus there pretty much the same ski except not full wood core and cheaper by a bit

 

[Tucks]

dumonts of fugatives

 

[josh.]

volkl walls or line invaders

 

[solitaryman]

`161 invaders.

[KRAMPUSNTROLLZ]

Yeah the invaders are like the ski for you as the others have said either 161s i would say you could go the next size up with your height but you don't weigh enough to really make that make sense.

 

[3rdgearpinned]

can't go wrong with ar6's in the park

 

[paulbunyan]

but if hes still growing hell get more life out of the ski....
