aight my brother is a college D1 AA football player thats been skiing since he was 3, hes 255 lbs 6'4", not too great in the park but loves it and wants to keep learning from when he started in there last year. cause of his huge size he needs something stiffer, long, and that can take a beating. we ski east coast so like no powder and hell do probably 75 park 25 all mtn. i suggested karmas but im trying to help him save some dough here so is there anything else that he wouldnt snap in half?

the trouble makers are going high in lenght but...the past year models werent that solid. the elan m02.2 is 185, but kinda soft. the mo2 is 185 too, but not sure in north america...look it out. head would be a good choice too. personally, I demoed some twins and found them to stiff...but if your looking for stiffness. the mo2 is quite stiff and the heads I dont rememder the model, maybe madtrix mojo?
