I'm super sick of people caring about a skis weight so much. They are not heavy and they are great skis. /thread

yeah you can def find your answer by googling but you don't need to. theyre great skis and the weight is fine

when i was new to park i obsessed over weight of skis as well. truth is, it really doesnt matter that much. grouping skis into "heavy," "light," or "average" is more than enough haha (unless youre touring etc of course)

lol yeah when I started I thought I couldn't spin because my stuff was so heavy and now and now I buy the biggest skis they make and don't give a fuck about weight unless maybe I'm touring, light skis ski like shit anyway

At a local shop, talk to a rep, sideline swap, pairs pop up on here sometimes. You could find em new and used for sure

Pretty much. Unless you are using them for touring I don't see why people care so much. Usually I prefer a heavier ski....damper and better for charging. As for park skiing lighter usually means less durable.

Not heavy for their size. If you want to feel a real heavy ski, ski some line a-bangs from back in the day
