Hey guys so I've narrowed down my ski choices to the volkl walls or the reno jibs. I'm a little over 6 feet and I'm 180 pounds. I like a stiffer ski for jumps but that also carves strong and butters and ollies. If you can tell me what you think that would help alot

181 reno jibs sound perfect for ya ,they are pretty stiff, very poppy, but still fun to just mess around on.

my bro works at a ski shop and last winter all the guys at his shop tried the 08\09 volkl wall, apparently it performed amazing and it is even good outside of park. id go with volkl wall for sure.

^ yeah im gonna have to say the Walls too. not being a symmetrical ski, they are gonna be better on the mountain and jumps too. size 185 would be perfect too

well if volkl have fixed the durability issue with the 09 walls then they will be a very very good ski.. in a 185 they will be sweet for you.. jibs will be lighter but i guess since you are pretty solid that wont matter too much.. they are pretty similar really so i think either way you are going to get a good ski.. both are pretty stiff, both handle all mountain well, both are sick in the park.. it comes down to image i guess.. which skis you instinctively like better?
