Ski size

[Octopus]

im 4'10.do you think salomon spk's at 151 would be big on me?

 

[B-Haag]

if anything it would be to small i would say atleast 165

 

[Min_Soo]

165? are you serious? he's 4 foot 10! i'd say 151 is probably about good. maybe something 155?

 

[Octopus]

thanks

 

[no_steeze]

i'd say that'd be perfect, anything more will be too much ski, maybe 155 max, i can sell you some 155 troublemakers if you want for cheap if you want

sry but i already have my on a pair of skis

 

[Balto]

what are you going to be using them for?

 

[Octopus]

i do a lot of park and pipe.but i also love the backountry and glades

 

[Balto]

ok if they were just park i would go 161 center mounted but scence u will use them for other stuff.........

 

[B-Haag]

the bigger the better you get better experience with giant skis i had 174 when i was 5 foot not even sure its that big but i had 165 when i was that tall which was like 5 years ago but ya

 

[poofartpee]

ow about ur weight and ability 2? cant really say just based on ur height

 

[no_steeze]

get some 189 hellbents

yes jon, but i don't think he should go over like 158, it seems like anything over that will be really hard to handle especially if he likes glades.

but...are you a midget or gonna be growing soon? also if you're like 13, we can expect a sudden growth spirt making you able to use a longer ski but if you're more like 10, you should stick with something your size
