I'm thinking to buy the chopsticks, but don't know which size.
I'm 179cm (5.9) and have 72kg (158lbs). Ride 70% of the time BC (tree lines, jumps) and 30% BM. The chopsticks come in 175 and 185cm, so any suggestions?

And if anyone knows how long these skis actually are, because those are surface measurements (with the tip curves). A lot of skis are actually smaller than those officialy sizes.

Hey welcome to ns

Next time you make a thread like this put it in the right forum. We have different forums for different topics. So this would be in gear talk.

Also get the 185's the 175's would feel really short.
