ha when i got my first pair of twins that guy said to my mom "now you should be careful this freestyle stuff is dangerous dont let him do any flips or anything. personlly i think kids should stick to racing but thats just me."
then when i asked him to centermount them he goes "thats not possible even when you look close there are no skis that are completely centered" what a dumbshit

some asshole today insisted that 170-175 was to big for me and would put me in anything above a 160. he said i would struggle controlling them. so i just told him that i knew what i was doing and just wanted that size. after a while he shutup. i hate guys like that, persuade your parents into the wrong stuff. cause neither of them know what their talking about and your parents knowing nothing will believe them.

I'm 5'8, and when I got my mojo 80's the guy insisted that 172 was too big for me, and that the 163's (I think that's the small size?) were better. I almost slapped him.

arent they pressed at the same factory in the same moulds? i thought they were. you are correct, however, the construction is entirely different.
