Ski Size Change k+++

[sskkrrtt]

yoo,

So atm im riding 164 atomic punx. Theyre perfect size if not a little bit to small. Im getting Line Afterbangs but having trouble desiding whether to get 166 or 177? Im 5,10

Please give me some advice.

Thanks

 

[T.O.]

first this thread should be in gear talk and second u should get 177's

If 164 is just too small, then wouldn't 166 be the obvious step up? Your not gonna want an extra 13cms on top of a perfect size..

 

[sskkrrtt]

true! but i just think the 166 aftebangs look like a massive shit! sick icon btw

dude i know they dont have it in the size but if i was you go for something in the 168-175 because the 177 will be massive im like 5ft 9 and i got 170 and they are perfect dude.

also depends what you want to use them obvious its oing to be park.

but the smaller they are the easier you spin and flip because of the wieght and size but you loose stability and its the opposite if they get bigger but you also get more speed the larger as well i think.

i hope this helped kinda.

[Noss.]

I'm 5,10 and I have 177 afterbangs and love em. Pm me for more questions

 

[jjdsteeze]

def get 177

 

[STEEZZZZ]

i am 5 11 with 178 cryptonites and love the size, and while its a different ski, theyr both lines so they running length should be similar

 

[DUKES]

go with 177

 

[Kogu]

Yeah, I'd say unless you like the feel of shorter skis go with the 177. You're 3 in taller than me and riding skis 3cm longer and mine are hella short

 

[No_Dub]

Get 177 bc they are soft.

 

[Caucasian_Asian]

Get the 177s. You going to have to learn how to ski adult sized skis sooner or later.

 

[Mr_pretzel]

im 5.8 and i ski 181 pipe cleaners i feel like a want longer. you will regret getting the short ones.

 

[eddy9]

I say that you should get 177 simply because everyone says so.

fa sho this

I would also say get 177. I was scared to go from 158 straight to 178 but I got used to it in a couple days and now I would never go back to shorter skis. Imo the extra lenght is less noticeable in symmetrical skis than in traditional sidecut skis.

Definitely 177. I got 181's when I was like 5'8" because my 171's were too short. I can't stand skiing on anything under 170. They are just terrible.
