Hi,
I'm going to buy a new sky (65% powder/off piste) and I'm thinking about Line Sir Francis Bacon or Sick day 110 but I've never tested one and so please give me your suggestions eventually also for other models/brand (I'm 6.1 tall for 178lb).

Thank you

Enrico

the bacons are a perfect ski for your situation. just make sure to get 184's or 190's even because they are shorter than advertised.

some friends told me to evaluate also the armada (tst and JJ) and the k2 (annex 108 and shreditor)

what do you think about these models?

I'm going to study the ON also if in my area I've never seen these and probably is not easy to find (a lot of people here use blizzard and volkl).

thank you

How is the armada jj? Is it really soft? Can i consider eventually this one as a one quiver sky?

or it's better a bacon or a blizzard peacemaker (the moment are not really easy to find)

thank you

How is the Line Chronic for skiing in Southern California? I do ski a lot of park since I'm usually by myself and thats the most fun. I will ski groomers and through some trees in between runs when we get fresh snow though. How are they in slushy conditions? I'm 5'7'' 155lbs, would a 178cm Chronic be too tall for me? Or is it even the right ski for me?

IF you want to stick with line, it sounds like you'll like the blend better from your description.
