not tru, depends on how good a skier is and how heavy he is, because the skis stiffness is relative to his size.

the arv might be a good option if u want a wider ski

lol. yea, you wont have to worry about them being to stiff at all.

how tall are you? im assuming very short.

in the case that you are skelator the 171 jmo might be an option, but it might even be too much ski for you
