eyo,
i just got the new trouble makers... probably the most gorgeous skis i've ever seen. there is no size between 165 and 175 in troubs so i went with the 165 which was to about the middle of my forehead and im about 160 lbs. i was just wondering if any of you think i shoulda went with the longer 175's which were over my head... i do a lot of park and a lot of slopes too.. any input?
thanks

if you are still growing, you shouldve got the 175's. if not then the 165 will do just fine

idk, tm's are fairly soft right? if you weigh 160 and are hitting any decent jumps seems like it'd be pretty easy to overpower them.

hey i have 168 scratches, but then again im only 145 and 5'9''ish. but if the 165 comes up to your forhead youshould be fine as long as they are decently stiff. are they?
