Nope, no 181.  The cryptonite comes in 178, but its still not that long.  Line doesn't make long skis, just their style.  If you're tall or prefer a long ski, keep looking.

i made a thread about this last year, and some line rep answered and said that there isnt a big enough market to justify making new molds.  it sucks, cause i wanna support line, but i live in ct so no pow skis, and im 6 3 so no 178's

that is odd. i am 5'10", maybe a little taller and I have 181 chronics. I would never go shorter for my park ski. I just got lizzies for all mountain and trees so i'll see next year how those compare. I live in CT and am going to UVM next year and my chronics are great for everything. they are so stable. They should be more like volkl that makes the wall in a 185. i love long skis

To this day I regret selling my 187 chronic wides. Haven't bought a line ski since then.
