scratch, you should still be able to butter. a lot of people here say it's stiff but i think it's cuz a lot of them such teeny little 14 year olds and stuff (no disrespect, you guys are just little) I'm like that exact weight and I thought my PEs were really fun and buttery. Oh and I'm also plannin to get some scratch fs for this season, my other thoughts were the new PE, anthem, or chronic. Although For you the chronics might actually be a bit too stiff.

yeah, the scratch fs, is good, but the spryer fs would be better....you can get those in a 180-something...

I'll sell you some unused 186 Atomic Super Moguls for $50. Probably the best buttering ski ever made.
