go 181 ARV's, or whatever size they have around 180ish. they are fat and a good park ski, especialy the new ones, they are light and fuckin soft.

i ski the east and love fat skis....nothing i ski is under 82 mm. but i really think anything over 95 mm under foot and over your head, is just over kill for east coast skiing.

If you want to use these for PARK, then here are some reasons that Lizzies will be better than Seths:
-Lizzies are almost symmetrical (back tip is very close to the dimensions of the front tip, much more so than the Seth series), so they will ride switch smoother.
-Lizzies have symmetical flex which is more park oriented, while Seths have freeride flex which is more like your standard powder ski
-Lizzies have a reccomended mounting point almost dead center. This means that the sidecut is centered very close to center, which will make swicth riding easier. Also, they will perform better if you want to mount them dead center because you will be very close to the sidecut center, much more so than the Seth.

Now, these things are all true for the Anthem as well, which someone mentioned. The main difference here is width. Athems are a huge 93 waist, but the Lizzies are 110, that's as big as it gets for a park ski. If you want to go super fat in the park, Lizzies are what you want.
