Picking the correct ski size?
There is no one size for one height and weight. The general rule is to pick a ski that is going to land somewhere between your chin and the top of your head. Within your size range there are multiple reasons to choose a shorter or longer ski.
Reasons for Shorter Ski’s, closer to your chin:
- beginner or intermediate skier
- Your weight is lighter than average for your height
- You like to make short, quick turns
Reasons to size your skis longer, closer to the top of your head:
- skiing fast and aggressively
- You weigh more than average for your height
- The majority of your skiing off the trail
- Skis have significant rocker in the tip
A shorter ski will be easier to turn yet not as stable as a longer ski. A carving ski with a skinnier waist and a smaller turn radius can be skied at a shorter length than an all mountain or a freeride ski with larger, longer turn radius and fatter waist width.
A broad, beveled tip with 10% more surface area for floatation and decreased tip deflection in chop.
The poplar and Caruba woodcore create a balance of low weight and optimum performance.
An ultra-lightweight carbon insert that runs the length of the ski like a stabilizing backbone.
Fiberglass layers create a ski that is smooth and stable while remaining lightweight and dynamic.
Sidewall from base to top sheet for great edge grip, with a rounded shape for increased durability.
