Hi, I'm about 5 5 and 110 pounds. I have been skiing for awhile but mostly downhill. I'm just now starting jumps and park stuff. I'm looking for a good pair of twin tips. About 160-165 cm, maybe? Any suggestions?

P.S. How about bindings? Center mounted or not? I was thinking about +4?

Lots debends on where you live , how deep is the pow,things like that as far as K2 the silencer is a good park ski if your not wanting to spend a hell of alot of money, Public Enemys are a great ski thats what i ski at +5, pretty good for pow as well as gettin in the park. Its a stiffer ski then the silencer.

I'm not a huge guy, should I be very concerned about the weight of the ski? Or is length a bigger factor? What do you think about the Ar5's for mostly groomed, thick/heavy pow, and jumps/park?
