for my next pair of skis i was thinking 4 frnt stl 167.this years or next..whichever is cheaper..but i saw a kid at the mountain today with them and he flexed them and the like vibrated back and forth froma ll the flex..would this be too flexy of a ski if i ski about 60 percent park and 40 percent all mountain?

yea man ur like me, i won some skis, but if i were u i would go with those karmas, cause they are pretty bad ass for the park but stiff enough if u wanted to go ski some shit

hey dan you retard, you've seen me rip on my STLs and you've been riding around of foam core, delaming salomon noodles, the stls are stiffer than your 1080s and y the hell are you going down to a 167 thats mad short

Personally i find my 183 way too soft, I prefer my old 1080's (pre spaceframe). Fun park ski, but it doesn't really do what I want.

Buy 2 pairs of ski's, one for the mountain and one for the park, just save your pennies and look for deal's.

Just dip your dong in paint and smack your helmet with it.
