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 :-)

A snowHead
We have decided to buy skis for my 14 year old`s Xmas present.
He`s 165 cm tall & weights 50 kg.
He`s been skiing for @ 9-10 years and is pretty good.
We are thinking of an all mountain ski.
Two questions:
1) What sort of length ski should we be looking at ?
2) Any specific ski recommendations ?
Thanks.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

1) Length about 165 or slightly longer if he is very strong on the skis
2) Take you pick there are tons of good all mountain skis out there

Hot Rod
Atomic Nomad
Salomon Tornados

, Just get him to try before he buys and he does not overestimate his ability. I would say a day at the snow dome with a
S&R
or Ellis Bingham he can test at would be a big help
The list above is only a sample but there are some super all mountains out there from all the companies and a few twin tips that could be classed as all mountain the
K2
public enemies being one.
Happy shopping
