Why do companies choose short skis for their "branded" items

So my mom works for budwieser and she came home to show me a pair of twins in the budwieser catalogue she could get me for free. They are atomix punx(the exact next ski I wanted to get) Had the bud light logo on them but not too showy. The only thing is they come in 164 only. I am extremely sad right now.

Probably because most of them are raffled off at bars and other places where there is a lot of people who dont actually ski.  I won a pair of MTN DEW skis probably like 7 years ago and gave them to my mom...she rocked them for like 5 or 6 years it was awesome

Maybe my mom or someone should ski them. They are just the perfect skis. And btw my mom has a real job at budweiser she basically designs the beer coolers for grocery stores and gets to decide how much room competing beers get.

get them for free, get a buddy to go buy some atomic punx (in the right size, lets say 174) at a shop for you. bring back the 164's with your receipt and say that you wanted the 174's or whatever. theyll exchange them. then go back on another day when its a different employee and return the 174's that you bought and you now have free skis in the right size!

Like he said, there is the Bud light logo on them. If they were just regular skis then that would work. But im sure all the employees would know that they dont come regular with the bud light logo on them.

I would still get the skis and either sell them on here or something, or give them to a friend. If your getting them for free you may as well take advantage of it and get them.

I'm already getting some PBR skis(Claim) but I could find something cooler in the catalogue. I am going to see if there are any cool kayaks or whatever in there.
