Hey,

im 6'0 and im getting new skis. Ive decided between the walls and StepUp. Im going to be hitting alot more jumps this year and there both of what i heard good skis. Or should i just get suspects? I also dont know what size i want i feel like 177 would be too big so 171 would be good in thinking. Also Im going to get bindings should i get Looks or Salomon STH? i have used STHs and they were super nice, but ive heard good things about the Looks

Thanks
 
I have the Volkl Walls size 185 center mounted and im 6'0, not sure on your skiing level or experience, but the walls are a pretty light ski and are very easy to maneuver at 185 center mounted.

For jumps they are stiffer ski which is great I have found for bigger jumps, and rails being very responsive giving me good amount of pop from the tips of the skis.

I had line anthem before that are a much softer buttery ski and so far I love the stiffness much better for jumps in stomping landing with less flex and not buttering out when I have a little off access landing

So far i definitely would suggest these skis for any park rat, and for groomers with some all mountain riding.
 
Thanks,

I'm also considering atomic punxs, Im a pretty good park rider going to hit 30-40 footers this year. Corks and flips. I am considering 173cm size for the punxs. I am pretty sure they would be great. What do you think? I ride 95% park 5% all mountain. Except when i go to a big mountain. then it would be about 60% park 40% all mountain
 
Get longer skis, the stability will help on larger jumps. And having them at center will make them seem like they ski shorter.
 
ok. thanks for the help. i have decided on getting Ace of Spades 177 with STH 12 bindings. i heard theyre a nice jump ski. and overall a good ski.
