How do I convince my friend to get 183s instead of 177?
Tell him if he rides 177 his dick will shrink. Fr tho idk man if you’ve explained the pros and cons and he’s still set on 177’s let him ride what he wants and he’ll either have a blast with a more nimble slightly lighter ski. Or more likely he’ll regret the lack of stability and say that you were right.
Yeah dawg just let it happen. It sounds like you tried multiple times because you resorted to posting on NS about it, so you can definitely say you tried when he realizes he shouldn’t be on 177 V’s
I explained that I skied a pair of 177s this year and i had an issue with them slipping out when i landed back seat. I also explained that with the rocker that V's have makes the ski ride really short. He wants 177s because he got used to 165 cronics and he doesn't want to size up by 18cm.

Ride what you want to ride, but a larger ski would better suit you. That's especially true with wets because they're soft and rockered. Also short skis plus tall guy look goofy
APalmtreeSo your saying that me (6'1) on 173s is a issue?
