Hi,
i ski a lot of years, i am an advanced to expert but now having collect some money i want to switch to freeski an throw away my Atomic M9 all mountain carver ski, damaged (brocken) at a gap.. so my choise is volkl bridge 2011 skis. and the question to u guys is in which lenght should i buy them.. 1.63 or 1.71?i am 1.70 tall around 60 kg... i ski mostly on powder conditions but i go also on piste (hard snow) or park..
Thx guys!!
 
Pay attention to the running length when you move up to rocker. You want the running length to be approximately the same (at least if find) or a little shorter than your last park ski - in most cases this means moving up in size about 5-10cm.
 
if he is 170 and rides bigger than 176 in park he might look steezy but he sure will have some trouble.. just sayin although steez is a big part of skiing today it should deff not mess up ur performance
 
i ride 179 LL2's as my pow skii ride 178 park skis
i'm kinda mad i bought them, i woulda gotten the next size up, but the price i bought them for i couldn't pass it up. still very fun and floaty
 
163 in a forward mounted rocker ski will ski like a snowblade. You will want the 171 length, which seems to correspond to your height very nicely.
