    Question King Salmons or Pimp Daddy's???

    I was skiing 190 Volkl Explosiv's loving every second of it, but they are totally torn apart now. I was thinking about the King Salmon's but don't like the fact that they are not available in 190's. I am only 145-150 lbs though and maybe it wouldn't be a big deal, I like to ski really hard fast and aggressively though. The Pimp Daddy's look sweet too but Ive heard they have a soft flex. I dont know, I guess I am just looking for some input as to what I should get, I really loved the explosiv's, is there anything out there that will ride similarly???

    The last part of your name is the answer. The 188 stiff should be what your looking for.

    You may want to take this to tech talk.

    you can always just buy another used 190 sploder - edit: speak of the devil...might want to check out another thread in gearswap that was just posted.
    183 IM103 is another sploder like ski from what I hear.

    other than that, maybe search a little bit...

    I have 183 m103's and I like them for bridger. Good length for tighter Ridge lines and enough ski to open it up on the apron. It also has a longer effective edge than the pimps by a couple cm's.
    I love big dumps.

    You'll probably also like the 190 Kneissl Tanker, if you can find a pair.
