Hello,

I want to begin with freeskiing, so I need to buy a pair of twintip skies. I don't have much money to spend cause I have to pay my skiing vacation too. I saw K2 Miss Conduct 07/08 179 skies on the internet for €100,- brand new, so pretty cheap. I know that it's a women model. What are the differences in comparison with the Silencers except the design? Can I use them as man?

You can, It choice but  depending on your skiing ability and how big you are they might not fit you very well, as far ass the diffference between silencers and misconducts I can not say be cause im am not familair with either ski.

I am 183 cm so the lengt of the skies (179 cm) is good for my first pair of twins if i'm right?

Difference is going to be the core of the ski.  Women's specific ski usually have a softer core.  Female skier's apply edge pressure differently.  As long as you get the correct length they may be just a bit soft but a more forgiving ski for beginners.  Your size and weight play a big role as well.  The bigger or more aggressive you ski; you'll want a longer stiffer ski.

- Right size, top sheet isn't to girly, go for it.

Nice type-o. Everybody above me has the ns logo as an icon I think.

And I'd say go for it unless you're 6'4'' and like 200lbs, then they might be a little soft and just noodley.

the only difference is the bio-flex core.... just think lighter swing weight and butter zones
