Love them

By Ranked #505 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis October 6, 2010

I skied these last year at Snowbasin and LOVED them. they float with the best of them, they can lay an edge, and bust through crud like a champ! I am 5'9" and 150lbs and the 189 was the right size for me. this year i am getting some marker F12s and going to ROCK this ski.

misprint by backcountry.com - they come in Lengths: 167cm, 178cm, 189cm

Have you skied these with the Marker F12's yet? I'm looking to buy the keepers I'm just unsure of what AT binding I'm going to put on it and would love to here your review of it. Also, I'm 5'9", around 155 lbs, and an expert skier. I demoed the keepers at 178 and loved them, but now I'm wondering if I should possibly go with a 189. Is this ski at 189 manageable for me or will I be left feeling that its too much ski?
