Re: Supershape confusion - what is the definitive answer?
« on: February 20, 2007, 07:29:21 pm »
Earlier this year I skied the IM 72 at 170 and the ss at 165.  I am 6'2' and 200lbs. 

The Supershape at 165 felt too short to me just getting off the lift and skiing on the flat but when I really started edging it locked in and was quite stable.  I am not the best person to really tell you what length would be best for you.  As always, demoing both is the best way to go.  That said, the SS had more pop and rebound than the IM 72. It was a noticable difference.  I would guess that this is from the laminate construction vs the cap of the IM72.

Hope this helps a little.
