I know people hate these as do I but I do need some input...
I am huge, 6'7" 185-190 and am lookin to get some MSP's. If I lived out west I know I would get the 187s but since I live in Ohio and ski granular groomers 90% of the time I was wondering if the 96mm waist apposed to the 92mm waist is to much for my conditions.

I hear mix reviews on these. Some people say they are shit and some say they are the shit. What ski should I get then? I dont really want the AR6 but I want something with a little wider waist 85-96 I guess.

the new 4frnts should be a lot more durable...they switched factories because of the durability issues ^ he was talking about.
