I was thinking on the lift to today about if there are any size restrictions on skis you can use in the x games. It would seam unfair if someone used snowblades or skis really small. Anyone got any ideas?

I would like to see someone try to clear those tables and land cleanly using snowblades, if you remember, Simon had to size up just to be able to clear the jumps

Snowblades would be unfair for he retard using them.  Cause they would get last on every run and look stupid as fuck.

you guys are all wrong, according to FIS only 193cm, as were ostress pros by line back in the day... it's not television that makes people look small, it's lines fault for making such a huge park ski in like 99...

Mike Nick was forced to ski on 130cm skis after they canned skiboarding. SO yes, there are size restrictions preventing snowbladers from competing.
