i gotta get new skis for next year and im only like 5'. I dont want to get juniors so i was thinking of like 155s or 159s. Whatever the smallest the company holds and isnt a junior. Im also only like 90 lbs so im thinking i needa get a ski that's considered super super flexy so it'll be atleast a little flexy for me... any suggestions? Right now im leaning towards the fujatives; i've heard they're flexy and next years models look hot.

mountsnowgirl whats the name of the sku? is it the intimidator?

The TMs dont hold up well on rails though... but i know they're super flexy. My friend was doing the s-rail with his TMs and he bent the edge in about half an inch

^ I think he was joking. And fuck Gravitypro. Read the post! He doesn't want junior skis, he wants a standard model. But yeah, go with the fujitives, I just started riding a pair (only been on em' once) but they're quite 'flexy'...I actually prefer the term 'soft' but hey, I think they're your ski.

why? Im 7 inches taller than you and ski the same length? unless your racing or skiing really open powder faces theres no reason for such madness
yuck, you'll be known as the pussy from this day on if you do that. Do something manly, like cut her initials into your chest or something.
