Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Go long for a TT..IMV..no point them being less than head height for all-mountain and a good skier ...and you could question whether you want a TT unless riding tricks...
Fine if they come at the price you want...but not to pay a premium..IMO.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

here, on pretty much any of the true new school skis up to 94 waist. Big mountain twintips I'd go shorter.

At 95 kg I'd go for 186 Prophets. They don't feel long and they're very light and easy to pivot. I'm 10kg lighter than you and have no problems with the longer Prophets. I also find this a good AM ski regardless of being a TT, which I have no real use for. But they do kick up a nice snow plume in your wake
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.
