Ok, so i'm looking for the biggest noodles ever. I came across two on my past thread that got good reviews. One of them being the Line Blends and the other being the J Skis "Vacation" just wanna wonder your guys opinion on either one. But more the blends because they are in my local shop. Thanks!

Blends are excellent for low speed rail skiing, but they suck at everything else.

Blend has relatively traditional twin shape, not really tapered and pretty minimal rocker hight&lenght making them way less swervy than skis shaped like vishnus

I’ve had both! Honestly the vacation is my favorite ski but I’m currently rocking a new blend. The blend is fun and softer than the vacation but the vacation is plenty soft and waaaaay more stable at speed and crushing crud. Blends are def lighter. J skis are almost bulletproof and blends def are not. All that being said I have a ton of fun on both skis

It does not work in pow - too little rocker nor in all mountain - way too soft

Line skis break, dawg. If they're on sale they might be worth a purchase, but definitely don't buy them at retail price. If you want noodles see if you can find some nordica soul riders on ebay or in the bst section.

I had a pair of J skis allplays and those things were bulletproof. I would go with the vacation if you want a ski that'll last more than one season
