Hey ns, my name is Reed and I ski in the northwest. I am an advanced skier.. I ski mostly park (specifically rails) and trees but when it snows i will be skiing some powder. I am 14, 5' 8", 120 pounds. Would the Line Honey Badger size 172 be a good ski for me? If not could you recommend something that would be better for under 350. Thanks

It would be a good tree/ park ski. It gets squirrely going fast due to the flex but I think it be a good ski

yeah I own them and you'll love them. you are a little taller than me but I'll be your height by next season. super buttery, but they lose a little bit of control in chop or going really fast.
