So I broke my Volkls and now i m looking for a new ski

Im 6'2 high and 180 pounds i mostly ski par for 80% and 20% on grooms

So my question is is the Ninthward True Twin in 182 a good ski for me or will it be to short because of the rocker
 does anyone have any experience with the ski

thx

i haven't had a chance to ski the 9's yet, but i'm 6'3" and ski 181 on3p blue steeles (rockered, symmetrical) and don't think they are to short at all.

K2s run huge haha, I got my 174 revivals and they are pretty much equal to my 179 one lifes. But for your height 179 should be fine.

what about the 169s because i like to a shorter ski, would those feel to small. Im currently on some 171 EXTs and i feel like i could go up a size but im not sure

I would personally go with the 169. My friend had them and they were about as ling as my 175 troublemakers. Also he is 6' and had no trouble with them being too small
