yo NS i have to buy a new ski now and i have a pair of salomon 2012's lined up and a pair of ar7's to decide between. i had suspects and personally loved them and when i skied 2012's they felt like a nice slightly softer more durable suspect which i was stoked on :) i have heard the ar6/7's are great too..

i am 5'10" and was looking at 179 2012's.
any recommendations?
which ones you recon?
peace

I would go for a longer ski, because of the rocker they will feel shorter than they are.

im 5'8 and demoed the 171, they felt like the perfect length for me and still spun fast, with the reduced swing weight
