well considering you're one hundred and sixty punds, id recommend getting something smaller, or bigger. Iwth the smalelr skis, youll be able to manuver a little easier, whether inthe trees or carvin that cord, you'll have a blast. On the other hand, a larger ski of lets say 180 cm would be better for charging the crud h-core. id say go with a 140, or a 180, nothing in between, it seems to me like you need specilization. Id say go get either the K2 juvy's , or the k2 pontoons. both great for whatever it is u search for.

thats a pretty good choice, however, the fujative isnt what you are looking for. i say you go out and purchase a new pair of boards. The pontoons are a new hot ski (like 90 degrees) you'd love it. get this ski jrap14, i promise you, you'll be crusin.
