next years guns, in 165 they are sick, they are replacing the gun s lab, so they are much more of a backcountry ski

The B4 is being replaced by the B-Squad (the same exact ski). It is more of a powder cruising ski than a big mountain freeride ski. I would put a Scratch BC in consideration rather than the B4. However, I would probably go with Seth Pistols.

well since you said you go touring you wouldnt want something TOO big, maybe 169 seths like that other guy said or 170 ish mantras, if you don't care about going backwards.

you're telling a guy that is 165cm tall to get ANTs (191 and fucking stiff) or Sumos (175 with a 130mm waist)? Are you fucking retarded?

A 169 Vicious, 165 or even 175 ARV would probably be great for you.
