Hello Guys

For my next Season, I want to get the Faction Prodigy 2.0, but I'm concerned about the length of the Skis.

Last Season I had the Armada ARV 96 in 170 and they were fine, but i want to try something a bit more playful.

I'm 80kg/176lbs and 1.70m/ 5'8 and ski 70% Rails/30% Jumps.

Should I get the 171 or the 177 model?

Thx for your awnsers
 
you're between the 2 sizes so either will be fine. i'd say 177 but you said you wanted something more playful so maybe you don't want more length
 
I feel like the word "playful" has been so overused by ski brands it doesn't mean much anymore... When you say playful what kind of skiing do you like to do? What kinds of tricks do you have in mind?

If you ride 70% rail, and like to do swap, rotation on and out, maybe 171 might be easier to manoeuver. But if you're looking to ride faster/bigger, 177 we'll be a more stable platform.

Did you ever felt like the ARV were too short, or wish they were longer?
