Alibi vs slat

SofaKingSickbut the Slat was a super well-liked park etc ski. are those your two major options?

InaMost likely yes. But I'm still searching. I've red a couple rewiews of these two and they seems to be almost perfect for me. Almost. Looks like alibi will be unforgivable in park and slat, well, it's too expensive or they don't ship it to Poland

SofaKingSickYeah from what I know, the alibi will kind of unforgiving in the park (but not horrible)

What else do you have for options?

InaSorry for the hiatus, I was little bit busy lately.
So my other options would be 4 front Cody 2012, atomic theory 2014, k2 kung fujas 2014 and head venturi 96 from 2015. Luckily I found the last baby in polish auction but its 181 cm long. I'm 175 cm high and I was wondering if it would be suitable since they've got rocker?

SofaKingSickThose are all good mid fat, all around skis that will let you rip all over plus the park

I can't tell you which ones will have the medium stuff flex you're looking for, but my guess is the Cody and the Theory (and out of those two I'd pick the Cody), with the Kung Fujas being softer.

The Heads are sick skis but prob stiffer than a beginner park skier would prefer, and yeah it wouldn't be terrible but they're a tiny bit big on you if you're thinking about park a lot

I say get the Codys, if they're a good size for you and the price is decent (which it better be for 6 year old skis!). I feel like that's the ski for you out of that list

InaYeah, Cody's seems the most legit option from all but the problem is that I can't find them anywhere or they're ridiculously expensive... Do you know some sites that sell used (not necessarily) skis except for amazon or ebay?

Heads seems to be great to, except for the height. Also I predict that I would spend time on mountain like 40-50% piste and 50-60% off and in the park. Aaand they're selling them at nice price. If I had them I would have a bit tougher time in park but it wouldn't be impossible to shred, right?

SofaKingSickoh okay, i thought you mentioned the Codys specifically because you had seen them for sale somewhere. yeah it'll prob be hard to find them generally; they're "old" skis by now. and def don't spend a ton on them, that'd be dumb/unfair since theyre older skis now (theyll 100% be good to ride with though)

yes the Heads will be just fine and those are good solid skis. they might be a little big on you for park use... are you a good skier? if youre a good skier the length wont be an issue at all except for maybe being a tiny bit annoying in the park


where are you? maybe im thinking of another thread but i thought you were in europe, in which case i don't know what's easily available. so if that's the case, let me know what is easily buyable for you and i can help pick what's best. i thought you had listed the Codys and other because that's what was available to you

InaSorry for making a confusion, I pointed skis that I found by rewiews. Yes exactly, all of this old skis are very hard to find regardless they're still would be great.
Well, I skied pretty much all my life, started when I was around 3y old (I'm 19 now) so I think I'm an advanced but not expert skier, although I've never skied on skis higher than myself.
I am in Europe, Poland precisely and even though non of options above were available. Except for alibi. Acctually slat was also in my, let's say, range but it was pretty expensive for 4 y old ski. And now I found venturi in good price

SofaKingSickokay cool i gotcha.

what size are the slats? are they a good price? if they're a good size for you and a good price, definitely get them! theyre super sick skis, really good reputation, and it's a perfect "do it all" ski. pretty much exactly the ski it sounds like you're looking for

The venturi is a good option for sure but as we said, it's not ideal that theyre a little bigger than you (for park stuff at least).

alibi isn't quite what you're looking for but could work well if need be

if the slats are a decent price and size for you, i dont think this is even a question...get them

InaSo! I've checked again on slats and model from 2016 169cm cost 380 dollars but I found one year older ones (175cm) and the price was nice, and... Unfortunately they ship it only in US. I'm blind moron. Tomorrow I will do a proper research and give you a call. Well, today but later ;)

SofaKingSickWord man let me know!

The good news is that you're looking for a type of ski that is super popular (and with good reason) and you should def be able to find something that works for ya!

InaDamn, it's been a while though finally something apperead in front of my eyes: k2 missbehaved 2013 model 170 cm and rossignol sin 7 also 2013 but 165 cm. My call is rossignol but what's your opinion?

SofaKingSickHmm those will totally work but won't be ideal. The misbehaved is a girls' ski...but all that means is that it is built a little softer and easier to handle

The sin 7 would be pretty good for your uses, though it's 10cm shorter than you. Is it a good price? Do you want a ski a little shorter than you? If you're a beginner or intermediate that'll work really well. If you're good or great at skiing it'll be a little short on you

SofaKingSickoooh if you're a girl i say get the misbehaveds! theyre a little short on you (but not by much, theyll be great and you just said youre used to shorter skis) and theyre a great do-it-all ski for you. theyre made for what you want. i think if theyre a decent price, you should definitely get them and you'll be happy for sure no matter what you're doing on them

... i also should have realized Ina might be a girl haha

InaYeah, they cost around 150 euros and from the photos they're in good condition. And with 4front bindings so that's also convinient. Wonderful then! I will post here some photos of my beauties when they'll arrive ❤️ thank you very much for you help and time!!
Hahaha perhaps you should but you never know now-a-days :)))
