As he said, look for something stiff. Ar7, Pipe Cleaner, Line Chronics are fairly stiff. It goes on.

182 Armada Alpha 1, you might be a little big for the size but its a stiff stable jump ski that spins reaaallllly well.

big and stiff. I had t-halls when i was younger and switched to the scratch. the adjustment sucked for jibs since they were much heavier and less poppy but they were awesome for jumps. the core kinda broke in after a year and all the edges fell out, but if youre just trying to hit jumps youd be good

Evo has salomon pro pipes from a few years back in stock for cheap. One of the best pipe/jumping ski you can buy; it has a race base, LOADS of camber, and a super stiff solid flex.

Rossignol Scrath

/thread

No joke, they are the perfect, stiff stable jump ski in my opinion. I had a pair but grew out of them (they were 174 and I'm 6'4") I've recent;y started doing more jump and I'm missing the stiffness of them compared to my domains, anyway, if you want a phenomenal jump ski, you simply cannot go wrong with the scratch.

Moment teams are so good for jumps. But being 6'2'' 181's are to short for you. Look for something 185+

Honestly my favorite jump ski ever was my AR5. I am sad I let them go. Chronics are fun, I love floating on my seths but they arent much of a spinning ski but they sure do glide.
