B-Squads.



But seriously, just go with any park ski that has the flex you want. They're all made to go off jumps and slide rails so there really isn't a whole ton of variation. If you like Armada go ahead and get another pair of skis from them, they seem to be an ok company.

I am going to tell you that you need a lot longer ski than 170 cm. Aside from that, it's mostly personal preferance if you're just yibbin'.

yeh def. go 180 or above....maybe 181 ar6s???depending on how stiff and shit u like your skis...ummm...maybe anthems even...(soft)and a fat ski to boot.and they come in a 177 i beleive so that wouldnt be all that bad for you as long as u dont plan on growing in the near future.
