Help with twin tip skis?

Im 6'3 180 pounds and im wondering if 171 cm twin tips are long enough. Im looking at the armada t-halls combined with fischer x14 bindings along with lange freestyle or fluid 100 boots.


btw im gonna do about 50-50 park-mountain





Would that be a good combination and is 171 long enough?

height is just a generic way bad salesmen use to size you up. your weight and where you plan on skiing are more important.


you are relatively light and plan on spending half your time in the terrain park so 171 is more than enough length for twin tips. you might even want to try 165's you'll probably find them more fun for freestyling and profiling
Reply:Way too short. I'm 3" shorter than you and I ride on 181 cm twins (Salomon's).





Go at least 181, if not one size longer.
Reply:You are pretty tall and heavy for 171s. I'm 5'9" 150lbs and ski 171cm invaders. You should go with a longer model, maybe the 181cm, especially if you want to do more all mountain riding.
