what do you mean you're tired of them, aare they too soft, breaking? or do you just want new skis cause you're sick of the graphic?

im riding chronic wides right now i find them stiff but very fun. then again im only like 5'5 120 pounds, i can bomb through any terrain with them and they never get chatery. on the other hand, if you wana butter everything, dont get these. if you want to stomp huge landings and y0ou like a bit of stiffness this is definetly the ski for you! i personally find the wide just so much better then the normal. even though its only like a 6mm difference iv tried both and i can tell you that for park you want the wides. so stable and perfect for those backseat landings without having your skis whipe out on you. they are very light skis i find.

well like what i want is a very poppy ski like on jumps since i dont weigh that much i just blow up when i land in those back seat landings and the invaders are slowy breaking and im tired of having a shitty ski i want a ski that can last me..so do you reccomend the salomon thruster at all or should i get the chronic..help me out please..

it depends on what size, but the chroncs will work, though you will find them stiff are first till you get used to a normal ski flex.

yea you for sure will. i mean they arnt impossibly stiff. they are still less stiff then the public enemies and karma. they are definetly a poppy ski and these are defiently a good choice for those back seat landings. last year i was skiing on trouble makers and found them a bit soft and whiped out on those backseat landings. with ma chronic wides backseat landings are so much easier that im even learning not to always land backseat. a good solid choice.

depending on what size you get, i mean i have a difficult time buttering my 177's and i'm a solid 50 pounds more than you, but they are extremely poppy and very lively but as i said good luck buttering on them
