if you were only skiing park I think that ski would get annoying. But as an everyday ski, it would be pretty dope.

187cm is a lot to throw around in the park all the time.

they'll ski shorter since your center mounting, and they're a twin, you should be ok.

dude for real id get the 180s if i were you. they ride just like the 187 cept u dont need the extra length for pow and charging shit like u would at a bigger resort. the 180s would be a good ohio park for u.

I'm 6' 185lbs and i rode the 187 in the park all spring last year, and loved them. I have 175 TMs too and only used them one day for a rail session other than that the 187s were sick, they stomp everything and don't feel heavy or big in the air at all, especially mounted at center.

word i rode my 187s mass last season and mass in the park. they're a super smooth cruising ski, like riding a longboard instead of a skateboard.

make up your own mind pussy. if you are so fucking convinced you can handle them, then why the fuck ask bitches on newschoolers for advice?
