Got a pair of deathwish 179 last years 21-22 model and they are too much ski for me. Looking to trade for some deathwish 174s. I got the pivot 15 forzas on them mounted at recommended and it fits bsl from 300-322mm

Really thought I should size up after having a wildcat 101 at 174 but the 179 is just too much.

I only have two days on them and the bases have one small surface scratch from running over a branch. It’s a shot in the dark but let me know if anyone with 174s wants to size up

What’s your height and weight?

curious as I’m stuck between sizes. I’m looking at the 179 but everyone seems to recommend sizing up on these.

5 7.5 and 175 once you gain speed they are all ppl say they are but fighting that sidcut at lower speeds and in tight scenarios they become too much ski. Even in some wet pow at red mountain they were good but in tight sections and at whitewater I disliked them completely and acc wish that I had my wildcat 101s
