practically everyone on this site has a pair of the sumos, plus they only come in 175's, the perfect size 4u!

but if u dont want to fit in get a pair of tm's, they will rock your world 4sur.

What kind of skiing do you do? That will make a big difference on the ski you should be riding.

The volkl sumos are such sweet skis, why do you think everyone has them, a nice flex and good for everything. The leather topsheet is a nice touch too.

5'6' 120lbs a 169cm PE would work you very well.

the sumos are very agile and nimble. they do well at high speeds in trees, as well as carving on hardpack. they are very light and can easily be tossed around in the park. very reasonably priced as well...

don't listen to the green names. having a green name is a punishment. it means you have lied too many times in the past, and this way everyone knows not to take thier advice seriously.

Ahahahahaha, priceless. Seriously though, the new PE would be awesome for you, and the Chronic, as well as the Karma.

yes, in all honesty, the 05/06 public enemy is an all-mountain machine. the new sidecut carves exceptionally well and it slays the park. smaller riders like yourself can even use it out of bound if not center mounted.
