Hey guys just a few questions I want to ask before I purchase a new park ski.1) I'm 6'1 weigh about 160lb; could i get away with a 177cm ski or would they be too small? 2) advanced skier, not good in the park although I can do 3s, hit rails and boxes; what would be a good ski to have for the park. 3) I've been looking into the line afterbangs although I've heard they are heavy, should I still get them? First thread so be easy on me. Thanks

1) post this in gear talk

2) id go a little bit longer. im about the same size and im on 182s. keep in mind that since they are twin tips, they will feel a little bit shorter.

3) there are lots of good park skis to choose from. check out armada, surface, on3p and line for a place to start.

4) i wouldnt recommend afterbangs. they are really soft and really heavy so they dont make a good ski for anything but doing butters.
