i have a pair of J.O. pros for sale (last years) only used 4 times...no rails....with mojo 15 bindings...asking $400...oh yeah size 177cm....i have a couple friends who want them...however no final deals yet...pm me if you want pics...
you get what you pay for, if you want good bindings you can drop $300 on STH 16s. Salomon doesn't make shit, but ofcourse STH bindings are more durable. Also I highly doubt you need a DIN higher than 10, but if theres any doubt go into a shop and ask before hand.
Well there will be a learning curve anyway (since u've been off real skis for 6 yrs)
If your height and weight requires that ski length (181) then get it. because you dont want to start to feel comfortable on skis again, and then be wishing for a longer edge.
Plus a 174 compared to a 180 is really only about 3 cm's on each end of the ski, and those are always curved upwards, so it may be even less.
skiboards have wood cores, 4x4 binding mounting holes, true twins, really fat. mine have a 105 waist, with 140 tips. and they feel and ride much better than snowblades. and snowblades are the ones made by salomon. other ski companys make snowblades, but skiboards are made by true skiboard communtiy supporting brands, like back in the day line used to.
