Rossignol S1 Jib Skis

[bquick222]

I tried to search for any sort of reviews on these skis here but didn't find anything. I was wondering if these would be a good pair of skis for me. I am 5'6'' and 130lb. The skis are 158cm in length. I usually ride all over the mountain and love skiing the trees, but recently have started to get into park. Was just wondering if this would be a good beginner park ski, that would also be able to handle other parts of the hill, and what you guys thought of them.

Thanks!

158 seems a little to short

what do you think would be a good length for me?

i'm not sure, but anything within your nose and forehead, thats generally how you can size skis

Agreed. I don't know anything about the ski but 158 is a bit too small. Try something like 163-169.

Ok cool, I'll look into skis around that size. Thanks for the help guys!

Does anybody have any suggestions of skis for beginners in the park that won't break the bank?

Line Chronics are a great ski. Armada El Rey. And K2 Sight

I'll look into those! Thanks every one who posted and helped!

the s1s are definitely not the way to go...i had a pair for a couple years and they had pretty shitty durability and couldnt hold a good edge. i trashed them before i even really started skiing park. im the same size as you are and ride a 179 no problem, but i would go with a 169 or so for park skis
