Shorter does not mean easier to "turn" or "control". Just easier to change direction. Woo-hooo. Take up snowboarding if that floats your boat. The poster was asking about turning. Short skis don't make it easier to turn, just easier to change direction. |
That's right, but a shorter ski will generally have a shorter turn radius, so it makes it easier to do tight turns (providing you use the skis correctly) which can be a lot of fun in the right conditions.

Shorter means easier to steer/pivot/slide around corners too.
