I know the Faction Candide 3.0 comes in a few lengths. Mainly I'm stuck between the 182 & 186 lengths.

I know sometimes the actual measured ski length differs from those numbers. Does anyone have this years' or last year's model they could straight measure tip to tail

What's your height and weight?

I'm stuck in the same boat too.

I'm trying to decide between 176 and 182s. I'm 5'9, 150. I would still like my CT 3.0s to be playful and maneuverable in the trees.

I'm currently on 178s. Any insight?

Not sure if that will help, but the CT 2.0 in 184 have an actual measured length (straight tape pull) of 182.1.

Well i got an answer from the source. The CT 3.0s are usually 2cm shorter tip to tip length than the stated length. So the 182cm is 180cm tip to tip and the 186cm is 184cm tip to tip.

I picked up a pair of 182cm and they measure 180 in a straight tape.
