BigPurpleSkiSuitJskis vacation in a 180 is my have fun ski. I also like a giant big chargey stick to go really fast on and make giant turns on. Something really nice about a big stick that has a massive turn radius where you can be leaning into it as hard as possible and you're still at 30 meters.
CatdickBojanglesSakanas. Seriously so much fun. You can lay them sideways in any condition at almost any speed. Then for slush or deep I always grab the Hellbents. Stupid heavy, stupid rockered, stupid soft and stupid fun.
LazylightningHow do the sakanas feel in the air? Aren't they mounted at like -10...I've seen some people ride them pretty damn playful. Also do the 181s actually feel long enough?
LazylightningBig straight skis are so fun, absolutely wreck your legs though haha
BigPurpleSkiSuitwreck legs how?
CatdickBojanglesThe mount point doesn’t feel that far back they don’t feel bad in the air at all. I had a blast with them in the peace park at killington they felt like they were made for it. I’m on the 174 at Lines recommendation (5’11 170). I usually skis nothing under 180 my daily drivers are 186 but they recommend a size down for them and I can see why. I also tour on them with daymakers.
edit: they also ride insanely well switch. Never been able to carve so hard switch. I wouldn’t haul a ton of ass like a true twin but I love them switch. Not sketch at all.

LazylightningI should have clarified, I'm a scrawny guy and my big skis are fun but they tire me out like nothing else

Shrek_IDEdollos are my favorite ski to always have if i want to have a fun day on any terrain, allaround very playful and extra buttery for lil jibs
mrk127If your looking for something to goof around on I say find some old twin tip tele skis and boots. I just started tele part time this year and it's a hella good time in the park and carving around the mountain. Tele is not as hard in the park and on the rails as I thought it would be. Straight skis are pretty lit but they definably get old quick
BradFiAusNzCoCaOkay, Ty Dayberry. Spins out of rails are hard enough…
mrk127Bruh i wish, Big mountain tele does not make sense to me
BradFiAusNzCoCaNot the craziest and not in my quiver anymore, but I really enjoyed the Liberty antigen back in the day. Wish I could have it back just for fun.
BigPurpleSkiSuitYour username and profile combo are superb, I'm looking forward to seeing more from you.
