Hey guys,

what do you think about this:

im 170cm (5“7), 70kg

will I have fun with a pinnacle 95 with 184cm or is it too big?
I want to use it mostly for powder and having fun on the slopes.
would love to learn a butter and other fun/easy tricks.

thx for your opinions guys! ;)

Skiing powder shouldn't be a problem. Learning tricks can be a bit harder tho.

Length can be a problem for me personally cuz I’m used to shorter skis. Guess it just depends what you’ve skied on in the past

I pretty much skied on carving skis up to head height, so it is definitely by far the biggest ski I’ve ever had, reaching over my head 15cm..
i would say I’m pretty strong/fit with my legs
but I just can’t imagine to being able to do butters if I can’t really put pressure to the nose cause it is so long
