Holla.

So this year. ive decided to try out Line and pick up a pair of theirs skis n bindings, the Line Chronics Wide.

Im debating weither the 187 will be too much ski for me? Im 6 foot 2 170 pounds and im going up from a 176 AR5.....

should i not be concerned because of the placement of the quick mount for mounting the bindings? I ride about 60 percent park 40 percent All mountain.

well what is your percent body fat?

taht is actually a good question, i was joking at first, but then realized, its not how much someone weighs, its how strong they are mixed with how much they weigh

man, people need to step it up ski length wise. dude, 187 is no problem at all for you. your big, and tall. 187 is perfect. if a kid whose 5'8 and 135lbs can ride 185 rockets well, im pretty sure you can ride 187's just fine.

For your height, the 187 will be perfect.

I think he meant AK rockets? I mean, that's the only thing that would make sense because you're totally right about the blue noodles; they call them that for a reason.
