Profahoben_212Why are you going so thin? I understand you don't want a super fat ski for big mountain, but I would still probably look around 100 to 110. Just personal preference.
SKRockies110 is pretty fat to be throwing around in tight trees and big spins. id say look at the line blends, the on3p kartel 98, the 108, and maybe a k2 shredditor
Profahoben_212Only two of those skis are an option. The line blend and shredditor are absolute noodles and are useless in any sort of big mountain. Or any speed...or chop...or variable. Not usable in a big mountain sense at all. Fun skis though.
K98 and 108 are good choices. You say 110 is fat then suggest a 108 ha. Good picks on that though. Other more freestyle oriented skis would be a 4frnt devastator, moment meridian maybe....yada yada.
More big mountain oriented skis would be the moment Belafonte, 4frnt Kye 110, on3p wrenegade, salomon qst. The new head KORE 105 looks pretty sick. Blizzard makes some good whips. Black crow is up there too. Have no experience with the last two though.

Coloradoskier03I'm fairly thin and tall, bout 5'7 and 120. Looking for a 90 ish underfoot big mountain ski that I can do spins and other tricks with. Any suggestions? The cheaper the better...
SlunkyYou could look at on3p. The kartel 98 sounds like a good option for you. Also as a side note(not to be a dick) but where do you live that 5'7" is tall?
Coloradoskier03Lol I was referring to my age. Gotta start mowing lawns for the on3p. Expensive af
SlunkyOh lol how old are you? Also I can relate, I just bought them and with the CAD being so bad they ended up being over a grand with bindings
Coloradoskier0313- I reuse my bindings. I bought a nice pair of look's for bout 150
DeepskierBe a little more specific, how/where are you skiing how would you like to ski? are you using these for park or just all/big mountain.
Coloradoskier03Little park, more big mountain. Cliffs- around 10-15 feet.
