i'd get 180's, unless you're a total twig and plan on skiing nothing but park with them. 187 if you ski mostly pow or if you are really large.

the graphic is the only thing to change pretty much.

yeah, it pretty much depends on your weight. I'm 6' 1" 185 and If you are anywhere over 170 i would definately get the 187. The 187 also has the best graffixxx and i believe it has a slightly higher tail than the other MSPs which is a good thing.

180s or 187s would both be solid depending on how burly you want your ski to be. don't count out the 187 as a park ski either. that kid^ rocks out with the 187s in the park all the time. i'm 5'3" 120 and i had a great time on the 170's this year, so i'd say you're good with either of the upper lengths.





my level of radness... it just can't... be quantified.

it's a no brainer, git sum rossis or looks p12s should do nicely, you might have to bend the brakes or get wide brakes.

the 180 MSP is the perfect size for you, and it is the sickest graphic of them all, cause it's got the white tips. yay!
