I am 14, i ski on the east coast, i weigh 130 pounds, im 5'9'', i like to hit the jumps sometimes, i dont usually try hard shit, but i would like a ski this year that is easier to do tricks and spins. Which ski do you think would be better for a park application???

ok, if you're choosing between those two skis, why not get the 175 ar5? if you're just starting, the less expensive 1260 might be a good idea.

177 is not too short for 5'9'' trust me, and i would go with the lines 1260s, light and resposive equals easy tricks, and your not heavy enough to need anything stiffer for all mountain
