What would be a good size ski for a kid whos 6'3 and growing, wants to ride park more, and is 180lbs? And if anyone knows how might be selling a pair with bindings for around 200-300????

Who needs pants when you can rock the shorts all year?

fuck that if you plan to center mount your ski you can go way higher than 180... id say the pollard or the karma would be great. im just like you but a little less tall and i get them for sure...

yeah deff atleast 180 I have some public enemies with marker binkings in the 181 size ill sell for 300

 
Jck 182 will be a little long for you... unless your skiing mostly bc... the longest you should be going is like a 178-180 im same height as you and going with a 176... but i ski mostly park sooo it all depends really what your skiing

I am 6'3' and 220 and ski 190cm. I dont spend much time in the park, but big skis are where it is at. Hence Glen Plake is the man. Bring on a pair of 200cm twin tips I say.

 
I'm 6', 170 and I ride 181 Mad trix. It's a good size, great all mountain.

Go with those on ebay if not already sold.

When you look at the pros riding, ie. Pep, tanner, JP who ever, most of these guys are not tall and they always ride like 185. Now i'm not saying anybody's pro or anything(maybe you are) but if they are riding say a 185 and are 5'8'' and say 160lbs, a 185 is a great length for everything, especially for a kid who can't get a new pair of skis everyday.

 
uh yeah pes deff came in the 181 size 'panda' I have them but then again it was prob a miss print... Not

 
uh also, and you may kill me here I know...but I havent bought poles in a while...what size should I be getting for my height?

for poles just have your arms to your side and arch the ellbows in a 90 degrees angle. then: ground to hand height. Perhaps this sounds a little confusing, but you know what i mean.

I am 6' 3' and I ride the 188cm Scratch BC, these ski's are the sickest ski I have ever rode. Theses tear up the backcounry and are awsome in the park as well

Lets start the Season
 
get something stiff, MSP's and ARV's are pretty stiff.

Just short of 6'2'' here, and ride 180 in park and 189 elsewhere. 180 is a great, versatile length, but go longer and FAT for powder.

Liberty Reaper 186. Bird is about your same size, tall lenky mother fucker. He has his center mount for park, and another pair 4cm back for park/all mountain. Perfect park ski for the taller guys!

...he died doing what he loved. He will always be rememberd as a great snowboarder, but more importantly as a great friend.
