Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
I have been riding the Armada Pipecleaner 181 for the last 3 seasons and now I fancy exploring the rest of the mountain. I'm 6ft2 and around 180 pounds. I've been recommended the Kung Fujas, but choosing between 179 and 189 is proving difficult!
Any feedback is appreciated!
Cheers, Al

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Al,
I'm abit heavier than you and have a pair of 184 Cham 97's as my everywhere ski, the 189's would probably be a better bet, though have you had a look in the Down pre sale thread worth a look if your not set on the Kung Fujas.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks Nick, was looking for something around a 184 which helps. Anything about the 97's that you haven't enjoyed?

Only carrying them, they are heavy beasts, otherwise love them, made snapping the 87's i had before worthwhile, would have got a bigger pair of chams if there had been something between the 107 and 127 models.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I've just bought a pair of Atomic Alibis which seem to get great ratings, although I haven't tested them in the mountain environment yet. Worth checking out though!

I had a pair of Volkl Mantra out last season and they felt very stable, a bit like a range rover for the mountain. The armada TST are also a good option, but they have an early rise so depends if you like the feel of that! Something to consider anyway, before you take the plunge.
