What are some skis that are narrow ( about 95 under foot), but still float good for their size. looking for twintips

 

[Puns]

either the salomon geartalk 92's or the the rossi S3s

 

[Montana_Hoodrat]

either the LINE searchbars, or the rossi scimitars.

[Montana_Hoodrat]

cool meme +K

 

[MustBeMattyB]

Salomon 2012s are a great ski 91 under foot

 

[Otherside]

I dont know if the newer versions are still under 95cm but my 08 kung fujas float pretty well

 

[Uncle_Rowdy]

I love that we've gotten to the point where 95 underfoot is considered narrow, haha. I highly recommend the Armada ARV. such a solid ski, floats awesome in powder and can handle anything you throw at it, jibs,jumps, pipe, bumps, crud, ice, trees, hell- I've raced on mine before. I will warn you that they start soft, and get softer, which In my opinion makes them super fun for fooling around and blasting through trees, but i know there are a ton of kids on here that truly value a super stiff ski. If you're looking for stiffer and still not super duper crazy wide, go with the TST or Norwalk.

Anything with early rise, and slightly back mounted bindings.

 

[HANNERTALL_420]

I wake up at 5:30 every morning and have my bindings -15 from true centre do I qualify?

 

[brakes]

I agree, 2012s, or should I say the Rocker2 90's as they're now called, are one of the best, if not THE best floating 90 waisted skis I've ever skied.

 

[iggyskier]

 

[MAPLE_SYRUP]

Haha Iggyskier, those definitely fit the qualifications.

My Jeronimos have been amazing in the deep

 

[RivetingRooster]

Line Blends. They have a 100 waist and I highly recommend them!

 

[250r]

this is what ill be rocking this year for park and light snow days. I think youll be hard pressed to find a better ski in this category. Praxis havent made their name in park really unlike big mountain, but maybe that will change with skis like this.

[theschneidler]

Just get a mono ski.

 

[seward]

2011 or newer rossignol s3

 

[jblaski]

Not your typical park ski, but the Salomon BBR fits your description pretty well.

 

[Gmart]

chronic, rocker 92, bonafide, sir francis bacon, mantra. Those are all great options

 

[Karma_Police]

Hmm, reading can be tough sometimes.

140 / 108 / 136 mm

 

[griz_lee]

MOMENT VICE! the best out!

 

[.Tom.]

Dude 108 is less than 95, jeez take some maths lessons dude. God, jeez, pfft.

 

[J.D.]

Hah. Remember when the first Seth Pistol came out? 95mm underfoot. Everyone: "That's too fat! There's no purpose for it, it's gimmicky. The Rocket AK at 86mm is as wide as any ski will ever need to be."

Wonder if the generation of skiers who have come by this "95mm is narrow" mindset rely overmuch on current ridiculous-fat ski design to ski pow.

 

[SkiTheYeast]

Line chronic

 

[Karma_Police]

Duh.

Skiing pow on a pair of S7's is quite easy even for a novice skier. Same concept as travel in mountain biking.

 

[SoCore]

+1 Rossi Scimitar. Looks fun.

 

[snakerton]

s3

 

[Backyard.Skier]

ohhh those are purty!

bet you guys so weird ass looks in the lift lines

 

[Montana_Hoodrat]

skiiers just got tired of having to ride backseat in the pow.

I fucking hate taking my 80mm waist AR5's through heavy snow. it gives me shin bang just thinking about how far back i have to lean to stay afloat.

now with my Volkl Chopsticks (128mm) i can charge as hard as i want in as deep of snow as i can find, and still keep a centered stance.

It blows my mind watching footage of mcconkey dropping huge lines on his OG straight skis and riding away. My body just cant handle that much backslapping.
