I own the 184 bibbys and 191 caylors. The bibbys have a little more camber than my caylors do which makes them quite a bit easier to ski on hard pack (along with them being shorter). However I feel like I can ski through or over just about anything with my caylors which is something I love. If I had to pick between the two however I would probably pick up the 190 bibbys. No experience with bluehouse or faty-pus. I have a pair of old liberty helix before they added early rise to them. They started to delam so I cant say I am overly impressed there.

Long story short you cant go wrong with the bibbys or caylors.

How tall/heavy are you? What type of terrain/where do you ski? What characteristics do you look for in a ski? What skis have you ridden and liked/disliked in the past?

I'm roughly 5'10/140, expert skier, I'll be living in whistler and I'm picking my 184 Bibby's up on sunday!

so im hearing bibbys or caylor and that is possibly the hardest decision ever between skis.
i think I'm feeling the bibbys abit more. is there any contradiction?

While Caylors can crush it everywhere, it's a a big ski for a lighter guy. Maybe look at the Jeffrey over the Caylor? Sounds like more what you want, it would be my choice if I was to only take one set of skis for a season. Don't get me wrong, Caylors are absolutely sweet and make a great everyday ski for someone who loves having a wide stable platform underfoot, but for something for a mix of fresh, potatoey leftovers and whatever comes after that, Jeffrey!

^yeah, I feel like Jeffrey's would be a better comparison to bibby's than caylors.

Double Helix are awesome in pow, light considering the width of them , also nimble and playfula nd you can still carve them.

I would obv say that as I sell them in the UK, but it's true.
