i have t-halls 176 im the same height and weight as you i get decent ollies and nollies

while the tails are pretty stiff they still are decent for tail butters and the noses are really buttery good for nose butters 176s are a little big for me but i guess it depends on if your growing or not

both arent particularily light. if you want a really light, poppy and quick edge to edge ski, get the punx. i bought the domains after the punx, to replace em, but after riding the domains a couple fo days i skied my punx again because they are alot more fun and light.

The new3 kastle colbys are honestly the best ski I have ever ridden by far. They blow absolutely eveything out of the water. 0 swing weight and pop for days. You can even turn them up on edge like a race ski.

this, domains are heavy but really buttery(like the punx). only problem with punx is that there's no durability...

unfortunately same here. but the new ones have thicker edges. i have the black yellow purple ones. none the less id buy the ski again. no pullout yet, after 1 season and it doesnt look like its gonna happen soon.

You guys need to check out these new kastle's. I sound like a broken record but they are absolutely the best ski I have ever ridden by far. IMO. I work at a shop and have demoed everything and it's mother, but these skis are far superior.
