QuaggyYou've gotta be kidding me OP, how many times do we gotta tell you... get 189s!!
Nah, stick with the 183, I'm 6'3 180 and sometimes the 189 can be a little much in tight spaces, but I'm on the wides.
Just because a bunch of idiots online say "big skis big steez" (which is totally true) doesn't mean you need to put yourself in a tough spot with skis you can't take full advantage of.
Jemsyou’ll be fine plenty of people your height ripping that size
eheathdo i see this correctly? jems advocating for SHORT SKIS???
Jemshe didn’t intentionally buy them short

Canis_lupusPretty stoked on the recent purchase but a little worried about the size after reading the numerous threads on NS. I'm 6'0 150 lbs and got the 183's because I ride some arv 184's currently. But after everyone saying that the 189s can help with stability on the wets for someone around my size I'm thinking maybe I should've sized up? Any insight would be appreciated, sorry for another vishnu thread..
TRVP_ANGEL🚨🚨🚨🚨 BLADES ALERT 🚨🚨🚨
addisonthegingeryou'll be fine. the cc graphic is so sick
LenntNS gonna hate me but Im 5'10 145lbs and ride 163s most of the time. Just got some 171 wets justice top sheet incase u care pretty hyped. Glad u like the webs wanted to support cal but I just cant pass up a milf with a sword for my topsheet.
Canis_lupusyou crazy but dylan manley would be a fan. Ik he sizes down
SofaKingSickdude they're literally the perfect length for you!
don't listen to mouthbreathers on NS repeating stuff, sometimes joking sometimes not. those skis are made to be playful and forgiving, that's why they're designed how they are. they didn't make them soft and rocker-y so that you could have decorative length on them
you have, no joke, the exact right size. you're 1000% good to go

LenntOn a real note tho ive always skiied 160s so 171 I thought was sizing up. I liked how easy the small skis would rotate but I should probably size up more for more stability on the tip and tail of the skis.
switchlip2Smh
Canis_lupusStill don’t know if you’re trolling. Do your 183s actually fit you perfectly being 5’ 7”
switchlip2I rode 177s for a season and it was fun to ollie and nollie on but it was almost too easy to “butter” where I could just learn foward and completely overpower my skis. Landing big shit on em too was hard they were too washy for me. I finally Made the switch to 183 this past season and it’s still easy to move around and feels significantly more stable while still surfy and fun as fuck to ride
Canis_lupusWord that gives me more confidence for getting the 189s
switchlip2Good. 189s will be perfect for you. No idea why everyone downvoted my original post ab 183 fitting me right when that’s the perfect height for that ski lol

weastcoatPeople are pussies who can’t handle their skis that’s why. They know they can’t spin their 6’s off for their instagram reels edits if they don’t wear their childrens sized skis so they take their distraught out on switchlip2

rojo.grandeTDLR// If you ride short skis, just get good enough to ride long ones
