I am thinking of getting some 2014 Line Blend's, but..

I want to know if they are as good and as versatile as the Line website says they are, and also if they would be a good ski for me. I am an advanced to Expert skier who is 6 foot and weighs in at around 70-75 kg. Previously, the majority of skiing i have done has been in deep powder/off piste, but i am looking to get into some more park and urban skiing, as i did a bit last year and absolutely loved it. So if anyone could let me know what they thought of the Line Blend's, then please respond. (It is also pretty important to me that they are a light ski).

cheers

if you get the 185's they'll be very versatile, but can get a little harder to throw around at that length

Im 6 foot 155 lbs and love my 178 blends. They are my all mtn ski but can easily be taken into the park. They work great in up to around 6 inches of fresh. I got the shorter length so they would be more nimble and easy to slide around. A pretty light ski if you pair them with a good, lightweight binding.
