if im correct, 100 waist is quite large for urban (i know its all preferance though) i think you'd be best from an 85 to low 90's

Thanks id agree but bigger waist helps stomp bigger stuff im just wondering if theres a ski that would fit me perfectly, I heard the Armadas were really heavy but durable

my armadas are lighter than my amplids, and i dont consider them heavy. its not really the weight that matters its the swing weight.

yeah my ar6s arent that heavy at all. i mounted them with griffons so theyre pretty light. swing weight is what matters though
