Haha okay well, I am 5'4. 113lbs and I have always skied on 141 team trouble makers. 141! Today, my mate gave me a pir of Rossignol scratch FS 168s and they are sooooo sick. it's easier and like looks better. Can do way more and don't look like a loser. How tall are you compared to your skis?

just a response to the writer of the thread, but its harder to do tricks on longer skis... that is why people ski shorter skis, you can spin faster and be more agile during jibbing. But, longer skis are still better all around.
