150-160cm is the future of jibbing.

Its actually the past... look at the aerials chaps of the 80s and 90s.... skis were about 150cm I think at most... and with the level of cork/invert, plus lots of rotations this is what will drive the kids away from poles and longer skis, cause these will prevent you from being able to spin as fast owing to weight and width etc. So, get your headbands out for the lads, bring on the shiny dayglow once ski suit, and get some of the fluoro Zinc lip balm on again, cause the past is your future the way things are going :-) LOLs

True dat. All modern skis are basically shit for moguls, at least for comp style moguls and anyone that likes bumps would enjoy old style straight skis far more in bumps than a carving ski or current fatter more rocker etc. The old ones just work really well for that type of skiing, they're lighter and simply go where you point them with no inclination to start turning. My old Rossi 4M skis were still the best ski I used for moguls :-)

It takes an egomaniac to moderate the site.
