I finally got everything for skiing and I was wondering what you guys think of this set-up. I'm 5'11", 150 lbs, and a west coast skier. I've been skiing for a while but this is my first year really focusing on freestyle. Just wanted to make sure I got gear that would work.

-174 K2 PEs
-Rossi Scratch 120 Bindings
-Lange Freestyle Boots (I tried the SPK's on but they felt tight and incredibly stiff, after hearing they were so soft I was really surprised, and the Freestyles fit way better)
-Joystick Poles (I got a really good deal on these, and they feel way lighter than the cheap poles)
