So I need some new skis and was wondering if anyone who has ridden the DaNollies could recommend them? I have just broken a pair of suspects that were a bit too short and stiff for me at 176, thinking of getting a pair of last years DaNollies @ 180... thoughts lovely people?

I bet those skis will last you 4+ seasons. Icelantic makes a durable ski

I have danollies now, and I have had suspects before, this is my two cents:

Da Nollies are the bomb! they are sick uber nice flex pattern and really buttery. but you can still stomp big jumps. Im hitting 60ft s with them here in Whistler.

Suspects are weird in my opinion.
the flex is super stiff and just not very nice imo. and the edge armour fucks the ski, it sucks!

Length wise danollies are a little short, but unless your hitting very large features you wont need the extra length. Im 5'10 - 11 by the way.

Thanks so much, really helpful! im now thinking that i may need something a little longer because im 6' - 6'1 and weigh about 170lbs, any suggestions? Having said that i may still go for DaNollies as my suspects were only 176 and i got used to a shorter ski...

Definitely go for the 180 Da'Nollie, that's not short, you'll be stoked, they are super durable and have a two year warranty and the artwork is sick.

DaNollies are great! Icelantic makes their skies very durable, and they're just a lot of fun to ski. The only downside is that sometimes these skis feel a bit heavier, but I would still recommend them.

Definitely not heavy at all. Probably one of the lightest park skis on the market, and ridiculously durable. I'm 6'1" and ski the 180cm and love them. I'd totally recommend these skis!

I forgot to mention that this is my jump ski, and I hit 60-90ft jumps with them. So thats why I have a bit of the extra length on them
