Yooo NS, never had to ask for any help on buying gear here but I need someone with some first hand experience.

I'm 6', 165lbs, advanced skier, and have been riding on 180cm+ for like six seasons now. Currently im riding 192 bacons, 181 thalls, 196 one lifes, and a few other skis kicking around.

I really wanted the blend this season but I can only get them in 178 not the 184 size. Does anyone around my size have any experience riding them? Im going to be using them for mostly park riding, but some fucking around at other times.

I'm considering just getting the 185 chronics instead and calling it a day.

Thanks NS

Blurst.

im 6' 155 and ride the 178. I use them as my all mnt cruiser as well as in the park. I personally prefer a shorter ski thats a bit more nimble, and I haven't had any problems. Haven't done any really big jumps on them, but I have skied 6+ inches and hit cliffs on them and not had much to complain about. The bigger size would be a better charging ski, thats the only area where mine lack a bit.
