hey ns,I have been wanting to get a pair of these for a while and spent hours reseaching about them and i was just wondering what the difference between the new lifes and the anthony B new lifes is other than the graphic, and why is the athony B edition more expensive? also if anybody is selling a pair in 174, that would great!

thanks for the help. +k for legit answers

it`s purely cosmetic, they charge an extra 50$ because it`s just special edition.

Hey do you by any chance smoke weed? Also Surface < K2 IMO.

K2 makes a far burlier product.

Sick skis, but why would you get a 174?! Are you a little kid or something. Go 184 bro

Have you skied on a big rockered ski like that before? It makes the ski feel way shorter. I agree that the 184 would be too long for you, but I still think a 174 is too short. It sucks that they don't make a good size for you. I'm the same way with k2 hellbents. 179 is too short and 189 is too long.

Are you going to be growing anytime soon? I would look for a 176+ ski. Especially if it's rockered.
