Expert skier/park/can ride anything on the mountain.

Now. I want the Thall promodel (08-09) and was wondering if I will be able to handle the 181. I rode Bluehouse MR's 179 last year and I didnt think that 3cm is gonna matter really... just wondering if i should up the anti to 181 instead of getting a 176.

176 will make everything easier park-wise, and i dont think anyone will tell you that you are a pussy and should have gotten skis that are 5 cms longer. im sick of the long skis make you look cooler, just dont get 155s and you wont get shit, ok dont get 155s.

If you're a decent skier, you should have no problems handling the bigger ski.
