I'm 5'3" and weigh 120lbs. I know, I'm a small guy, but I like to rip park and i need a stable ski that will hold up on bigger jumps (+40ft). I've heard that the tjs are made for big guys but I've also heard that they are some of the best park skis on the mountain. I've also heard great things about the yards and I'm stuck between 161 yards or 163 tjs. any help would be awesome. +K for good advice

I have last years tjs and they are by far the best park ski i have ever owned, i disagree with it being for bigger guys cause i am 5 9 and only weigh 135 pounds, my buddy also bought they yards and he loves them to pm me for more details and i can give u a full review of both

wrote up a review. really stable stiffer ski. super durable. it seems pretty much indestructable. landed on rocks from 10 ft, hit soo many rails and no edge crack. tried to beat the shit out of them, but they hold up very well. im 6"1 and 170 for reference and got the 183s

yards have a ton of pop and are super durable like the tjs. they are also softer then the tj
