the silencers are a great ski that are light and very easy to through around. i had them and i loved them. simple to learn and get tricks dialed, but there are better funner skis out there. get last years anthem. super fun ski and wont break the bank.

if i were you i would look into some coreupts either the colby pro or the tj pro they are both three fifty and probably the best 350 dollar skis you will find they come in 185 for the colby pro and 183for the tj pros

I hate them a ton too.  If you can find some cheap, 181 Pipe Cleaners or 181 AR6s(not as good IMO, but cheaper.  don't get them before 09 though, they used to be super soft) are great.. and mount at -2.5.  You're 6'5", 181 PCs measure 183 or 184, and you want a longerish ski IMO(that could be perfect, they are somehow more stable than my GS skis were).
