 Poster: A snowHead
|
Lol nah I'd be happy with the 190 length (although a 186/188 would have been perfect...), just faceshots are one of my favourite things about skiing pow, and I've never skied anything fatter than my 92mm Big Troubles, and just wondering if/how much extra float might affect faceshot potential.
What a weird question!!

All of our lengths are mould lengths ie how long the ski is in the flat mould before it sees the press so you'll find the actual length is 188cm.

Plenty of face shots still available even with 128mm under foot, mainly 'cos youre going so much faster with that width!

kitenski, I'd go 190.
I'd only consider the 180 if you're sub 70kg.

You can hit the fall line then slam them sideways if you want the snow to billow up.

Having spent the majority of a further couple of weeks on them I just have to re-endorse my earlier review that they rock as a non-hardpack ski. Only drawbacks - a little skitterish on some sastrugi and not quite wide enough for the 3 foot of fresh I had to deal with on one day with my limited talent. Even got used to tearing up (soft) groomers on them.
