How good are you, how long have you been skiing, and how long are your skis now?


But if i had to guess, I would say anywere from 176cm-183cm ski would be fine.

umm, depending on how good of a skier ou are, and your personal preference, between 176 amd 183, you could go longer, but most park skis are within that.

twin tips have less surface area than normal skis, and because park skis tend to be softer and lighter, you can handle a longer ski and will appreciate the extra stability.
