Short skis vs. Longer skis?

[cThorp]

short skis tend to be easier if your doing switch ups and butters and are what i perfer(like level with my eyes)...but lots of people like longer skis cause there faster and easier/more comfertable when doing big air...

WHAT DO YAA DIIIG?!?!

I guess I go more towards the shorter skis (except pow sticks of course). I would look burly me riding long sticks though, Im 6'3 so long boarders for me would be in the 190 range.

long skis are so steezy.

don't be lame and look like your half way to snowblades.

finally, some one agrees with me. what happens if you have 200cm skis and you cant even 180, what then. eye height is good.

i like my skis to fit with the tip to curve around my forehead.

eye level to top of your head is the perfect length for most skis, sooooooooo thats how i roll.
