Replying to Which skis - Punx, Invader, Butterlicious, Larose? Which is the lightest?
Hi,
I'm looking for a new skis for this year - I ride mostly in Park - small jumps, some rails, also I like to carve a bit too, practically not riding any offpiste. Last year I rode Invaders 178, liked them, but now I would like to try some lighter skis, I weight 176 pounds and I'm 6.3".
I was looking at Atomic Punx, Line Invader 09, Ninthward Butterlicious, Liberty Phil Larose Pro also High Society Classic.
Just for a fun, I tried to find approximate weights of the skis, here is what I found so far (please add the missing info if you can):
Armada Pipe Cleaners 2009 176cm - 8.6 pounds
High Society Classic 2009 177cm - 7 pounds
Atomic Urban Punx 2009 175cm - ???????
Line Invader 2008 178cm - ???? (will try to weight mine)
Ninthward Butterlicious - ????
Liberty Phil Larose Pro 2009 178cm - ????
Also I'm considering of getting a pair of skis for all mountain everyday skiing and probably some offpiste - what can you say about Ninthward First Blood 181cm? Are they wide enough for offpiste?
PS. I'm also getting some light bindings - the lightest seems to be Salomon Z12 ti at 1780g, followed by salomon S14 at 2060g.
I would appreciate any useful replay! Thanks!
