Ski Size

[scratchskier321]

I'm 5'-11", 145lbs. and im thinking that a 171cm ski would be good but im not sure. I'm thinking about the AR6 but what size?

 

[-NY-STeeZE-]

181 ar6, im about the same size as you but 6'1" 160 and theyre good

511, a 171 is maybe a little short. How long have you been skiing, aggressivenes, etc? Im 5'7, and im on 176 t-halls, and i might get 171 invaders, or 175 tnk

Definitely go ~180. If your really against going that long for whatever reason and you feel weights gonna set you back with a 180 go in the 175/176 range, nothing lower though.

Where are you mounting? If center then definitely 180 imo.

181...its so funny how un-educated skiers are on ski size

 

[ikellen]

More like it's so funny how retarded people on NS are about ski size...

181 would be good regardless of what retards have to say, he's 5'11", 176 might be good but i'd go for 181

 

[scratchskier321]

Its hard because besides from 70 percent park most of the other 30 percent of terrain I ski is in the trees, so im thinking 176.

Where are you mounting? The only issue you'd have is tails, if you mount center, the 176 is going to feel way too small, even if just a couple + from reccomended, go 180, its just 4cm but it'll go a long way

^ i agree centermounting 176's would feel short, get 181's and centermount, will be good everywhere
