I need new park skis and new powder skis.
I am 6ft tall and weight 167 pounds.

For park i am thinking either getting some line invaders, line cronic wides or armada tanner halls i would be paying retail on all except the tanners which i can get from a friend for US$260 with p12 jibs and the have only been skied 20 days. SO which one?

For a powder ski i have been thinking the seth's in 179 or the line elizabeths

What do you guys think???

get the 189. They have a big twin and you'll mount them foward, so they ski shorter. a 179 on you would be tiny

If i went the 189's how far forward would you mount them in order to make it ski abit shorter but rock for backcountry powder and trees?

At your height go +3 or +4.

They will ski shorter but stiff float well.

For reference seth skis his at +5.

I'm 5"10" and I went +4.

If you dont like it you can always remount too
