What are you going to be skiing most?
Hight?
Soft/Stiff ski?
Skiing ability?
Ive been riding the Surface watch life the last few days and love it. Its soft in the nose and stiff in the tail. Super fun ski I would suggest it if your looking for an all mnt./Park ski

Or the 170 Liberty SB's that I have that have only been used a few days, and are in amazing shape.  They're pretty much the same ski as the MR's as far as flex, materials and dimensions go.

Make an offer... I'm going to sell them for cheaper than you think.  https://www.newschoolers.com/web/forums/readthread/thread_id/325374/

I don't want to make this a sale thread so I say either buy Rich's Libertys or some MRs both sound like great skis.

I would highly recommend the 163 watch life they are an amazing ski you would have a lot of fun on them. I just got done riding them this weekend and they are such a fun ski.

You should be on a 170 or so.  $150 and i'll bring those skis to your doorstep today, with a copy of Look it Up.

$100.  Dude.. they're hardly used.  I'm 5'5" and on a 178.  You can handle them.  They're soft.
