lines a good company but dont get last years 1260s unless you want a cheap pair to learn on then move onto better skis but id suggest line chronic, Scratch FS, K2 PE...go with line they are a good company and if you are just gonna do park not all mountain look into Invaders, Fujative and AR5 by line, k2 and armada respectively

Im new to freestyle and i have a pair of 1260s. Theyre pretty good for what i want them to do but next year im fairly certain im gonna have to replace them with something. speaking of which i want to go to a different company with line because theyve been nothing but trouble with the fuckin reactor bindings. Any recommendations? Ive been thinkin between like armada, 4frnt, movement, or liberty.

you are a fucking idiot if you see i say "invader, fujative and AR5 by line, k2 and armada respectively" that means that invader is made by line, fujative by k2 and ar5 by armada...maybe you should learn how to read you fucking idot. and no ar5 isnt strictly park but its a great park ski while being a great all mountain ski at the same time...your fucking stupid

AR5 by line implies the AR5 by line, AR5, by line is what you meant to say."if you are just gonna do park not all mountain look into Invaders, Fujative and AR5"..also you just contradicted yourself. you say park and not all mountain, once again implying exactly what i said.

No go a liltle smaller around 168.......... If you go 174 then they will be too big and you'll spend to much time trying to get use to them and not shredding the park.

ok the part about park was legit that was my bad miscommunication but if you read carefully its easy to tell i didnt mean Ar5 by line, im not THAT retarded...ar5 is a really good park ski tho at the same time being a really good all mountain too so it was just a suggestion

the English on that dudes response was correct, but come on this isnt school
I have some AR5s and chronics and I love them both equally. I would recommend one of the other. Tons of pop, good all mountain, awsome in the park. Both ride switch really well
