Surface One Life Size

[natty.]

Making this one short and sweet, I am 5'8" and weigh around 130 pounds. What size of the Surface One Life should I get? I will be skiing BC pow and a very small amount of spring park with these, and when I ski park I do not do very technical rail tricks, I mostly do jumps. Lots of BC jumps, pillows, and other pow features. So should i go with the 179 or 189? With the massive amount of rocker, i dont want it to ski too short, but i want to keep it light, and keep the swing weight down. Also, im thinking the 189 might be too much of a ski for me especially if im throwing them around in the pow. Thoughts?

 

[T.O.]

I would say 179 at 130 pounds. My friends the same height and about same weight and says he wouldn't want them any bigger

 

[natty.]

yea im thinking that the 189 will be too much ski

189 for sure. I'm 5'8 150 and they are amazing. My little brother, who's 5'4 125 used em and fuckin charged with em.

 

[natty.]

^yeah but i wont be doing much charging with these, mostly BC jibbing.

189 for sure... A lot of guys 5 5 and shorter rode the 179 and wished they had the 189!

 

[natty.]

so if i was say, 175 lbs, i would want the 189's correct?

 

[CAUSWELL]

flat spot is 825mm contact is 1672mm

 

[Ftacnik]

That's for the 179's, correct?

 

[[~_~]]

I'm 5'8" and rode the 189s without any problems. Long enough to charge, but quick enough to whip around!

Just remeber that your dick size is determined by how many inches the ski is taller than you.

I measured my 189 one lifes last year.

about 90cm contact point. and 50 cm of rocker and tip, 50 cm of rocker on tail. If I'm correct.
