I would've gotten the Scratch. The Sprayers are a skinnier/ softer, and just poorer quality then the scratchs. I've never ridden the sprayer, but tahts just what i have heard.

its not a poorer ski, its like the b1,b2,b3 and b4 kind of thing, the sprayer BC is a good ski, its more all-mountain and since its waist is 88mm it could go off piste, your talking about the 05/06 models, cause thats what im talking about

They seem like they would be a nice bigger park ski, if you like a wider platform in the park. And for a smaller guy, i'm sure they would be fine all mountain.

they are not poorer quality, just a wood core which is much cheaper to make than rossi's THC business. they are fairly soft, and i have friends who ride it as their park ski. though at your weight they would be good all mountain.

Then yeah, sprayers probably were a better choice.

now he's anorexic. But the sprayere is a good ski, the spryers are Rossi's price point twins. The sprayer BC is a little skinier then the 04-05 Scratch BC, Since you are so light it will work fine for off piste. including powder,  at 107 you don't need 100mm under foot. 88 will work fine. It is also alittle softer then the regular BC, again this is probalbly a good thing since you are so light. It will be a good do everything ski for you right now, and after you hit the weights and gain a few pounds it will be a solid park ski for you. It is also what Sage uses in the park if you care.
