my friend just asked me what ski she should get. shes a freshman in college. shed have no trouble pushing around a big ski. this is her email.
Are Ninthwards MIPs decent if I want to hit park and powder? Would you suggest Heads Mad Trix or Sweet Fat Thangs instead? And for height purposes, if I'm 5'11 would you say go for 160 with some sick ass graphics, or 170 with some sick graphics?
can you guys help me out i have no knowledge of any of these skis.

i have a pair of mad trix in 181 and they are uber stiff and bomb proof. if she is hard on skis and likes a stiff ride get a pair of mad trix

well my mad trix, i'm not sure what year they came out probably 04 or 05 are very stiff and very heavy which is good if she skis fast out of the park and likes fast groomers but if she isn't a great skier she might not like these in moguls or jumps especially if she lands back seat alot

Do get M.I.P's. they are the best ski I have ridden. They aren't soft and are pretty stiff but if you want to flex them you can. but they only come in a 170 so there goes the 160 with kick ass graphics. But it is a pair of 170's with really kick ass graphics. they have dinosaurs everywhere.
