im 5' 3 and weigh around 85 pounds. i am a pretty good skier, can ski about anything in front of me but by far not an expert.

i will be skiing in utah and bc with these skis and was wondering what would be better the EP shorty 155 or SFB 162? What has more rocker and all that info. I already have surface next life's if that helps for anything.

THANKS!

just going from what i heard- the next year ep pro shorty is 107 with the same rocker(i believe?) as the ep pro regular model..im not sure from the catalog and i didnt go to sia but it says the 162 version of the bacons will be 115 underfoot with a smaller rocker than the regular ep pro's

If you are going to be charging I would recommend you get at least a 162. I'm about 5'2" and I ride 172 Pandoras and I can't even begin to explain to you how much I love them. I have tried the EP Shorty and it was a really fun ski but once you get going fast it gets a little sketchy just because they are so short. If you are 5'3" the Shorty won't even be as tall as you are, just for reference.

160 moment pikas get my vote. while they dont have any rocker, they will be much more lively and stable then any line ski

Wahhh??!! How could you not like the SFBs. They hold up so well in every condition (except crud).

I would demo shit out before you take any of our advice. You got to keep in mind... it is the internet.
