.Hugo.I wish the sizes werent so weird. Is there a reasoning behind the 173 and 183 on rayzrblaydz? I feel like most people prefer a park ski in the 178 area

KittenFactoryWe are still a small company and building all of our own skis, so time is very hard to come by. We will definitely add more sizes to our lineup as we continue to grow, but for now we are just trying our best to cover as much of the size spectrum as we can with the resources and time we have. Also, all of our skis are measured flat base. So our 183 cm Rayzrblaydz are a 181 cm straight pull with a good bit of rocker. It's not too far off from a 178.
shin-bangi specifically went kitten factory because they made a longer rockered park ski thats bombproof. (im 6'1/6'2) but the real question is how tall are you? and as kitten factory mentioned the actual tip to tail pull is 181 with about 30cm rocker. so most people could either size up or size down and be perfectly fine.
SFBv420.0maybe ski yas sat
i don't ski markers but if ya got a demo carbon chairman mounted w/ dynawhompers @ 332 bsl

.jifAnybody know how stiff/soft the rayzrblaydz are?
KittenFactoryI would give them a medium-stiff flex. They are stiffest underfoot in the camber section. Tips and tails are rockered and quite a bit softer. They have a directional flex, so the tails are stiffer than the tips to keep from washing out on landings.
.jifOk, thanks! Also, are last years rayzrblaydz the same as this years other than width?
