It's July, most retailers only have odds and ends left. Try again in November and December.

Of course you probably won't have a ton of success then either. There is not enough of you towers walking around to justify making a bunch of 190 park skis

yeah honestly im not sure how much luck youre going to have finding a park ski above 190cm

i think your best bet is to find a 90s waisted twin that is meant to be a park/all mtn ski and get the longest one they have (high 180s most likely) and pick a stiff model to help compensate for the lack of length

if i think of anything ill tell you, but one that jumps to mind: i think the moment PB&J comes in a 188. i think that's a stiff ish park/everything ski that won't fold underneath you as much as many others would
