Line SuperNatural 92 sizing question

both are going to be small! line measure very short! find something in the low 190 / high 180s and stiffer then the line 92!

I don't think this will be a good ski for your size!

Maybe the brahma 187, but that could also feel a little small depending on what you like, on3p wrenegade 102 186 might work as well! the on3p will be considerably longer than the line

Appreciate the insight and I will have to do more research I guess on my next ski. I'll possibly check out the Rossy Sin7

Sin 7 is a the womens version of the S7.

Why does he need something stiffer? Its all preferance, so op would you like a softer more forgiving ski or stiffer more stable ski?

also short, and in almost no way should be compared to the sn92.

I rode the Salomon 1080's (Spaceframe) and the Ross Scratch a while back. I've heard good things about the Rossi Sin 7. I had originally looked at the Line Supernaturals as I've previously mentioned. However I'm leaning towards the ROssi Sin7.

Meh, The Sin7 is a different ski from the Scratch BC (92mm and 98mm versions).

Closest ski to those right now would be a Salomon Rocker2 100, which is a great ski.

I have filled the role with an ON3P Kartel 98, and am really happy.

Both the Sin7 and the Supernatural 92 are directional skis. Neither are twins and both have a very directional side cut. The Supernatural 92 is an amazing directional firm snow ski for the PNW, and I imagine as an all round ski for the EC. It has a metal reinforced maple core. As apposed to the much lighter and softer core material in the sin7. The SN is also 6mm narrower under foot, has a much longer contact area, and wants to be skied relatively hard.

Appreciate the response, and I should have mention I'm not looking to get another twin-tip ski. I'm merely looking for a sold freeride/all-mtn ski with a nice rocker.

What's up man, I spoke you at the shop, the only reason I would say not to go 186 is because well skiing glades on the east coast its almost always super tight, so the 179 would be where I'd put you on, like I showed you at the shop, sick day 95, or supernatural 92 (regular) slightly stiffer than the lite, and as stated above where they said they measured short, the sin 7 we had at the shop in a 180 would ski way shorter than the supernatural or the sick day because of the amount of rocker it has to it. A few other skis I would suggest would be the volkl bridge or atomic theory, but like you said you don't want a twin, all of them are great free ride skis, let me know if I can help you out anymore and if we need to, we can always order you a size or a specific ski

Listen to this guy ^^^^^.

I'm 150lbs 5'9" and ski the Sick Day 95 and the Supernatural 92, eastern skiing, glades, ice, etc. Our glades are tight, a long ie. 186 Supernatural in eastern glades is too long.

Here's the scoop:
Sick Day is an amazing ski for all around skiing. 179cm for me is the perfect length, it's stable at speed, very maneuverable in the trees and adequate in smaller storms.

Supernatural LITE no metal ski I would ski in the 179cm, it does not feel like the natural w/metal, it's a compliant ski more suited to bumps and tight trees as it's more flexy and poppy, has no vibration dampening.

Supernatural with metal is strictly a groomer ski, it rips, and it rips. I tried both the 179 and 172 and opted for the 172, this ski can handle all but the utmost fastest all out speed, so it's a compromise I made for maneuvering in tight spots, bumps, etc. This ski has a longer effective edge, it GRIPS and RIPS the snow, feels like suction cups are sucking you to the snow. There is very little pop as compared to the SD because this ski has so much vibration dampening. This ski plows through crud, you won't know it's there, over frozen golf balls.

Hope that helps.

Read my thoughts in the above reply...also...

This is completely accurate statement if the person is skiing wide open terrain at speed, the ski does not work until you get it up to speed. It will turn but it really starts ripping at speed, that's it's forte and being he's gonna ski it on the east coast, to make that ski work at 186cm needs space on the trail and speed. This sucker is sooooo smoothe on the groomers and plows through crud.

Hey Jay, really appreciate you're help and advice. I'll look into a few of the suggested models from a few of the helpful comments above.

I have some research to do, I'll look into the volkl or atomic's as well.

186 is too long for east coast tree skiing? seriously? I would start looking for another shop

OP I weigh 80!!! pounds less than you and have no problem on a 179 ski in the tightest of east coast skiing

B.QuincyWhy does he need something stiffer? Its all preferance, so op would you like a softer more forgiving ski or stiffer more stable ski?

I'm pretty sure an advanced skier at his size will overpower the supernatural 92, not trying to talk bad about line but they are not too much ski for someone his size since he is looking for an all mtn!

Have you skied it? The ski has metal, plows through anything, damp, not poppy for sure. Great edgehold on firm snow.

For the most versatile length I'd go w/179cm for him, but for stability at speed and in pow (btw, its now a pow ski) I'd go longer (and that's for flat out groomers or bombing at mach speed).

I looked at the Salomon Rocker2 as you (Cobra) suggested and really like these skis. They are very similar to what I to rode (1080's) and look to be a great "all" purpose ski that I can have a lot of fun with. Nice rocker on these as well.

Just going by the OP. Your height and weight...go 186. Don't listen to skinny little kids telling you that it's too long for the tree's.

I've been on the SN in a 186 it's a pretty sweet ride. I have also owned the Prophet 100, and the influence 105 in the 186. I have never felt like they were hard to bring around. And Line's 186 measures super short. Seriously more like a 180cm ski.
