What size skis should i buy?

  • I am 5 foot 4 inches and weigh 110 pounds. What size skis should i buy? Thanks for any replies!!!

  • Answer:

    First off, your main question should now be where do you want to spend most of your time. If you are spending most of your time in the park and in the pipe, then I would go with the 151. It will have a lower swing weight and will be easier to handle. If you want to use the ski all over, then I would go with the 161 size ski. The 161 will go faster, but it will be a bit more difficult to handle in the park and pipe at your height and weight. So you need to decide where you will spend most of your time! What you need to remember with twin tip skis is that the ski will ski shorter than it's actual length. Therefore, the 151 will ski more like a size 145ish. A 161 size ski will ski more like a 155ish.

Shorter are good for tight turning and the park so if you like that 150 would be good If you like nice long carves or powder skiing more i would say like 155 to 165

it really depends on how much control you have... how good you are. i would say demo some, different sizes and stuff and see which feel the best... fatter skis are better short and thinner is better longer... demo some... that way you know what kind and how long you really like.

Shorter will help you turn, longer will make you go faster.. the ski shop helpers will say teh same... good luck
