    194 XXX too much ski?

    On powmag there are a pair of 194 XXX with rossi 140s and a two day ticket to alta for sale. I'm thinking since I'm going to be in Utah in march, and tickets are 40 bucks a piece, the ski and binding would only cost me 120 bucks. (he wants 200) But I'm not sure if I'm man enough to handle a 194. I ski 177 elan mantis 777s, and rock a pair of volkl 193 P40s(thanks to Caddy Daddy). I'm 6'3 and 155-160. Like to ski fast, but spend most of my days in the trees. Think these XXX would be too much for me, or because I'd be using them out west and only on real deep days on the east coast I'd be able to handle them?

    I should add that I have a pair of freerides and nothing to mount them on, and my roomate wants to buy the binders for 60 to replace his ever so crappy solly 810s. So 60 bucks for xxx when all is said and done.

    the wendy's $1 menu would be far more efficient I think.

    Well I'm going to buy em, looks like I cant go wrong.

    crash, I've got some marker 1300 ti pistons new in the box if you want binders, and some old m51s in perfect shape. Also got a set of DR9s sitting around. My room mate called first dibs on the axials.

    Yeah, I've been stock piling gear for no apparent reason.


    Basom, if I dont like em, you got a deal.
