People need to get off line's dick. It's been really bad lately. There's soo many more brands out there then just LINE and people really don't see that. Anyways to the thread creator, we need more information or else we can't choose a ski that would be good for you.

are you fucking serious?

"tell me what skis you think are good for rails and boxes or tell me which skis are bad for rails boxes "

this was his first post and I said he needed to give us more information and it's true. That's such a general statement that he gave us. That could be so many skis. Especially since he said good or bad.

my bad on the 2p..

if you tell us your body weight. favorite "area" of skiing (park, powder, groomers etc) and where you ski, you will get alot more specific answers.
but check out the invaders.  they are pretty much made for rails.
http://www.lineskis.com
the invader profile on line's website has alot of information about the ski.  check it out and let me know if you have any questions.

rails and boxes can be done with any ski. Basic guidelines for a fun rail ski are that it is twintipped, has a good amount of flex and pop for jumping/spinning onto/off of rails and doing butters/presses and the bindings are mounted fairly close to, if not at the center of the ski, for even weight balance.
