Prodigy 2.0

I was going to get icelantic nomads, but they are just too soft. I’m now probably going to get prodigy 2.0s. I would get the 1.0s because they are much more freestyle oriented, but they only make up to 184. I need like 188+ so my only next option for a stable ski is the 2.0s. But I’m not sure how well they handle the park, especially with the weight.

The prodigy 2.0s can handle the park no problem. You’ll be fine.

Dope imma get those then. Should I get pivot 15 or 14, the only reason I wouldn’t get the 15 is the weight. Do you think I would really notice the weight tho?

Personally i dont really like to ski the prodigy 2.0 maybe because im not used to them. I know some very good skiers that is skiing the prodigy and likes them. It was really weird doe i was trying a pair of prodigy 2.0 from 2019 and they were super soft and super light almost felt like there was no skis. And then i tried a pair that was from 2020 and they were not soft at all i thought it was odd. The 2019 pair was way more skied in so maybe thats why. But its probably a good ski a lot of good park skiers skis them

You will get used to it. Most people are okay with p14s.

Opt for the 14, more elastic travel in the toe. Especially if your skiing equal to or less than 12 din

The 2019 models sucked. The new ones are a whole different ski. Much more stable.
