The wall?

[Snice]

I'm looking at ordering the Volkl Wall I'm 5 8' and weigh 54 Kg. Ski pretty much everything including park.
Would this be a good choice?

 

[idontactuallyski]

yeah sounds good man i've heard the walls are real solid skis

 

[Snice]

Thanks, anyone else?

 

[juliana.]

amazing ski...get em for sure except they are known to break easily although mine havent yet

 

[lepp0012]

I love them. And they rip outside the park too!

 

[Snice]

Bump

Whoa, didn't really do the math on your weight... 54kg is about 120lbs. The Wall is a pretty stiff ski. You may be a bit light for them. But, if you like a stiff ski, then I would recommend them.

For reference, I'm 5'9" and 175lbs (80kg), and I ski the 177, which is perfect for me.

The Wall is a great all mountain ski. It's relatively stiffer than most skis of its size so it holds up well all over the hill. For your size, it'd make a pretty good one ski quiver. If, however, you hit up the park a lot and you really like buttering and messing around, these will probably be too much because you're kind of light (no offense).

Ahh none taken, I'm short and light lol.

Also out of interest what's a good ski for flex? (I think thats the word)

 

[jason...]

I think the word you are looking for is a ski with soft flex. The last 2 seasons I have skied Line Invaders and Atomic Punx, both of which are quite soft and just in general a really fun ski.

Maybe look at the Line Anthem too. They might be perfect for a guy your size. Same ski as the Invader, but 93mm under foot.
