6' 173 Enemies. I woulda wantyed 175-178, but they only came in at 183 after this length, but I have had absolutely no problems with them in up to knee deep powder.

The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get that out of the way, then go live in an old folks home, then you should get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, then on your first day at work you should get a gold watch. You work 40 years until you are young enough to enjoy your retirement, you go drinking and partying, then get ready for high school. You go to elementary school, become a kid, you play, you have no responsiblities, you become a little baby, you go back and spend your last 9 months floating around in a spa and then you finish up as an orgasm!

You are all weak skiers that ski on little short winny skis because they are easier in park and pipe. With the exception of the guy who skis on the 205s of course. If you look on the back of a twintip ski the effective skiing are is actually 5-8 cm shorter than the length. ( 177 1080s ski like a 170. I ski on pow airs (178) and I think they are way too short and way to flexy. I am going to use them as my shit/rail skis and I am getting much stiffer Atomic STOMPS (186) specs: 118 88 108 this week. They are much stiffer then those crappy POCKET ROCKETS and they are a little skinnier so they will be better for park. Don't get me wrong though, Atomic also make the Sugar Daddies and the Big Daddies, Sugar Daddies being in the same catagory as those shitty pocket rockets (but a little wider and much stiffer) and the BIG DADDIES being the fattest ski on the market
