yo i was wondering wht size skis i should get... i am about 6' and 175 pounds.. i ski prolly like 95% park since i live in the east and we dont get any powder... i was thinking about 176's but wht dou guys think cuz u guys seem to kno ur shit thanks
 
191 ants???? i dont have newhere to ski with those.. the deepest powder we have is like the one 1 foot storm we get a year
 
ur a pretty big guy so i would first say get some like all mountain twins since there fatter than normal park skis they will be stabiller and for length its were u like it but i think 176 is like around ur chin witch would prob be to small but it all depends how tall u like em im 5'6 and like my skis head height or above and am not getting anything smaller than 175 next season
 
I know I'm going against what everybody else is saying, but I honestly don't think 176 is too short. If you're skiing 95% park, you want something that's quicker side to side, more manuverable, and lighter... and most narrow-waist 176s (such as ar5s) are all about that. The only benefit I see with longer skis in the park is a bigger landing platform, but then you have to compromise the swing weight.

I'm 6'2" 175lbs and I ski 176 AR5s in the park. I have 187s for everywhere else... but when I'm in the park, 176 is perfect. Go for it...
 
mikds sound like they would be tight for u...176 length...light...poppy...perfect for park
 
im 5'8 160 and i have 03-04 skogans, and they are 176 which is taller than me by a few centimeters, and i ride almost 100% park on them
