Papasteeze Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 Well, I ordered my skis this afternoon. I went with the 171cm because the guy at the shop rides the 176 and he is 6 foot 200 and he says there perfect for him. The graphics arent that bad. 29977[/snapback] Here is the graphic on a t-shirt from the same artist that is on the 171 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justo8484 Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 what shop is this? someone who's 6' 200 pounds is definately overpowering a 176 ar5. they arent exactly the stiffest ski in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sno Mountain Skier Posted August 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 Proctorjones, but i think he might have been lieing. Because it wasnt the shop owner who i met it was just some technicain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papasteeze Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 I tend to agree, park skis are typically center mounted so that 6'- 200lb guy on 176 doesn't make sense if he is an avid park rat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sno Mountain Skier Posted August 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 I actually dont care now, with what size i got. The 176 was over my head by a little and the 171 is at the top of my forehead, so they are perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sno Mountain Skier Posted August 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 I actually re measured my slef and i grew 1 1/2 inches since i started the thread, so i have decided to go with the 176. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
