hey sry for another "what ski should i buy" thread
but i am real stuck on what ski i should buy.

i am 6'0", 170 lbs... tryin to decide between rossi steez,
salomon gun, or ross brigade...

i already have a pair of 174 scratch fs wrs from last year... dont know how much i could use those cause they are kinda small now...

i am lookin for a ski that u can jib around with all day on and
that would work well in powder, as well as being fun to cruise around on...

any advice...

i'd go with the brigades, I hear they carve super nice and float well in the pow and are light weight

i was thinking the same thing. its the same ski than the 07. they rated everything lower this year fo some reason. but the 07 bc is super nice, so i think the brigade would be too. the steeze might be too big for east coast, and it would be heavier and not as good in park

if your on the EC i wouldnt suggest 110 under foot(steeze), but if your somewhere with resonable snow i would like the steezes there so sick
