Im sorta a big dude,  6 feet tall and 200 pounds. i was wondering if the t halls would be too soft for me, size 181.  Or can you name a ski that would be pretty soft at my size, but not too soft. THANKS

I would go with the AR6 if you're looking for Armadas. I think you wold overpower the THall.

im 6,2 155 and i have the 176 AR6.  im pretty strong for 155 and i can work the AR6's very well i love on them.  i think if you got 181s they would suit u very well.  soft,  but also have very good pop. and you could hit some bigger jumps on them too

I am 6'5 210 and I ride the 181 T Halls. They are definitely easier to butter than my chronics but for a rail guy i would definitely recommend.

I am 6'0 and about 180 and I rock the T-halls 176 and they are the 07-08 one so they are a bit softer and I don't think that they are to soft, I love them. I ride in Qc so I also only do smaller jumps and they work great because of the stiffer tail. Hope this helps!
