Hi im thinking of getting some 181 Night Trains. I'm 5'7, 130 lbs, and an aggressive skier. i want to be able to straight line powder fields, be nimble in the trees, hit big cliffs and booters, and even ski chopped up pow and crud when its not a pow day. I was wondering how the Night Train would perform in these conditions, and how it would compare to other skis that were similar to it.

+k for help

i think ski instructors can teach you.


but the NTs will preform quite nicely once you acquire those skills mentioned above

you also might want to check out the next  size down, 181 would be fine for pow days, but a smaller size might help out more in the trees and preform better all mtn wise for someone your size

haha alright so i worded it wrong. i want a ski that can do those aforementioned things well. but i dont really want to get a smaller ski, because it's just the start of summer, and i'm still growing, so i will be about 5'8 to 5'9 when next ski season comes around
