How fat is too fat

I've been checking out twins for a while and can't decide how fat is too fat for southern minn. I need something over 180cm that is semi-stiff/stiff. I would check skis out myself but I am deployed to uzbekistan until feb. and need a pair of skis the weak I get back, so I have no time to try them out. I am looking at Karma's, Pollards, ar5, and liberty reaper. I am 6' and 210, strong skier. I ski alot of park and the rest the time it's moguls, or technical shit fucking around. I know it's all personal preference but in this case I have to make a blind decission. Anyway any input on what you ski, or recomend skiing in that area is appreciated.

I think that personally i would want either the pollards or the arvs. Either of those skis would be tight, but i would go with the arvs first. nothin but good things.

By the way, thanks for servin our country man.





Is there an ociffer problem?

get the karmas they are the best all around twin out right now. the 185 would be perfect for you. i dont think the arv would be too good in the bumps and its def not a park ski. the karmas cna kill anything and are probably stiffer than the pollards. but either of those 2 would be good choices
