I'm looking for a new pair of skis and these have caught my eye, they are stupid cheap (under 200 shipped) which makes me worried but I thought I would see if any NSers knew anything about them?
I am looking at the 183's
I am 6'7, 230lbs,
I ski Minnesota, 70-30 park/groomers
I am an 3+ skier.
My budget is not really set but I would like to be under 350$ for the skis unmounted.
I am very interested in a ski with rocker but am open to other options if nothing fits my price range.

I would recommend the all mountain blanks made by surface. They are super cheap and are a super fun ski. I am pretty sure they are the same ski as the old watch life which is what i have and i love them

You'll need bigger skis. I'm 6'4 and not much lighter than you and my all mountain skis don't have much rocker and are 192's.

You should not buy Tetons. They are incredibly bad, one of my friends were delaying in the first 10 days and he wasn't skiing hard at all

Would love to buy longer skis, show me a pair that is under 100mm waist twin and ill get them in a heart beat. The longest I can find is like 186.

186cm Kartel 98's. 6'7 is huge, but it'll be enough ski for you.
