He likes the park and is 5&#39;8&quot; 150 lbs and growing (shoe size 12). What size would you recommend (164-171?) and will a Look PX Team binding hold up? question_111310 Sun, 31 May 2009 10:52:30 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0010/Liberty-Double-Helix-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_104243#question_104243 Liberty Double Helix Alpine Ski<br /><br />these or the black diamond megawatts? question_104243 Mon, 27 Apr 2009 20:27:31 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_103094#question_103094 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />what&#39;s the turn radius on the 181, 186? question_103094 Tue, 21 Apr 2009 17:06:44 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_101152#question_101152 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />Can anyone comment on a med-lighter weight Alpine binding? Im thinking look px15 but afraid its higher weight may offset the playfulness of the hazmats.<br /><br />Also are folks skiing this &quot;flat&quot; ie minimal binding lift. I dont ski switch or park. thanks question_101152 Sun, 12 Apr 2009 13:29:48 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_101060#question_101060 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />what kinda bindings would you set these guys up with? and what is your personal opinion on these vs the volki bridges? question_101060 Sat, 11 Apr 2009 18:30:16 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0010/Liberty-Double-Helix-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_100256#question_100256 Liberty Double Helix Alpine Ski<br /><br />i have been sking the Helix (187) all year and would like to add double helix to quiver but not sure on optimal length (190 or 182)for 121cm width boards. Any recommendations? question_100256 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:10:59 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_100235#question_100235 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />ok. So i have done some looking around and i&#39;m looking for a good all mountain twin. I&#39;d say I ski 40/60 park to the rest. Im wondering if these skis are what i need. Ive also been looking at Volkl Bridges or Faction Wednesday question_100235 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 14:47:43 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0009/Liberty-Helix-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_99107#question_99107 Liberty Helix Alpine Ski<br /><br />I&#39;ve been skiing pretty consistently for the last 4-5 years mostly at Mt. Baker in Washington but sometimes up at Whistler. I&#39;ve been on some really old atomic carvers and would like to go to something that will serve me better on the steeper runs and deep snow. My main holdback in the past has been a lack of partners to ski with but now that I am at college I have found some people to ski with who are at my level and would like to get a ski so that I don&#39;t sink when all my friends float but can still go all over the mountain. I&#39;ve been looking at these helixes and the gotamas and the prophets. Any recommendations for other skis or which of these would be best? question_99107 Thu, 02 Apr 2009 01:50:26 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_98771#question_98771 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />anyone know what the base material on these bad boys is??? and has anyone had trouble with bindings ripping out?? i just got through with a pair of ninthward first bloods and had the heel piece rip clean out. i&#39;d like to avoid that in future purchases<br /> question_98771 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 10:03:29 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_98315#question_98315 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />hey guys, do you recommend the 181 overall? question_98315 Sat, 28 Mar 2009 14:47:34 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0009/Liberty-Helix-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_92748#question_92748 Liberty Helix Alpine Ski<br /><br />First off, I have been skiing on a pair of Helix 187&#39;s all season long and OMG they are the best ski ever made [or at least that I have been on]. For anyone reading this thread for info, they are stable, powerful, floaty [pow], grippy [hardpack], light, playfull, etc....I am thinking of buying another pair for a telemark setup. Does anyone have an opinion on if it will be the best TELE ski ever as well? question_92748 Sun, 08 Mar 2009 19:07:51 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_91284#question_91284 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />Hey, I&#39;m a 5&#39;11&quot;, 180lb, east coast skiier. I&#39;m in my 3rd year skiing, but i&#39;m fairly aggressive - I&#39;d say i ride 40/60 park to groomers/bumps. Also, I get out west a few times... went out to park city this season and possibly going out to lake tahoe next season. Should I go with a Hazmat or a Prophet 90? With the Hazmat, should i go 181 or 171? also, I found a pair of Line Anthems cheap and Dynastar Big Troubles cheap. how does the anthem hold up for an all mountain/sometimes powder ski, and how does the dynastar do on ice and in the park? thanks guys. question_91284 Thu, 05 Mar 2009 09:52:18 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0010/Liberty-Double-Helix-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_83100#question_83100 Liberty Double Helix Alpine Ski<br /><br />Thinking about getting these but heard the durability wasn&#39;t so good in past years. Do you know if any improvements have been made in terms of quality? question_83100 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 14:28:33 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_81680#question_81680 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />Anyone have any rec. on sizing for 6&#39;, 175lb. Wanted to get it for east coast softer days. thinking the 181...but tight trees get me thinking smaller..any thoughts appreciated question_81680 Mon, 16 Feb 2009 14:03:51 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_77662#question_77662 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />I just got the 08 hazmats. I ski the whole mountain, very little park. How far from center should I get the bindings mounted? All the way back at the standard mark? &#39;cab forward&#39;? question_77662 Sat, 07 Feb 2009 17:55:03 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0009/Liberty-Helix-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_74374#question_74374 Liberty Helix Alpine Ski<br /><br />Liberty helix or Rossi s6I want a ski for the back bowls some times untracked mostly cut up.I do like a light ski also I go into tight trees to find fresh so making quick turns when needed is good. Any thoughts ? Also my daily driver is a Fisher watea 94 . Thanks question_74374 Fri, 30 Jan 2009 08:40:54 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_67810#question_67810 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />How are they with park? I ski up at the canyons usually sometimes hit up the bird so there I ride powder and well everything. Im just a little worried about messing them up in the park with the bamboo core and all. question_67810 Wed, 14 Jan 2009 21:57:09 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_66762#question_66762 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />I&#39;m thinking of getting a pair of these and mounting with tele bindings. How well do these hold an edge on early morning hardpack? Not that I&#39;ll get them for that purpose, just wondering since it&#39;s such a soft flex. Also, where can I find weights on these skis? question_66762 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 13:46:46 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0009/Liberty-Helix-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_61412#question_61412 Liberty Helix Alpine Ski<br /><br />Any mounting suggestions for Dynafit TLT Verticals on these boards? I have them o nthe bench right now and think I&#39;m going to wait a bit till I drill them. Any suggestions would be great. This ski will fill my &quot;long tours&quot; spot in my quiever. Thanks... question_61412 Tue, 30 Dec 2008 16:18:21 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/LBY0008/Liberty-Hazmat-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_57742#question_57742 Liberty Hazmat Alpine Ski <br /><br />Hi, right now I am skiing on Line Mike Nick Pro models and have the Marker Baron Binding. I am live on the east coast and love to ski the trees and groomers. I am about 6ft 1, 16 years old and 165 lbs, i was wondering whether the line prophet 90 or the liberty hazmat would be a good ski for me question_57742 Sun, 21 Dec 2008 12:26:03 GMT
