Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi Team I am going to buy a new pair of skis for the soon to start southern winter and as I am no longer the crazy young gear freak I once was I am looking for suggestions. A few details for you.
Age 51, height 183cm, weight 105kg (yes I know I should loose a few), Level advanced. strong but not as fit as I was.
I am looking for skis mainly for off piste but not touring. They don't have to be super wide as we don't get the supper deep powder that often but should be good in the chopped up off piste and fresh stuff. What can you tell me???

i'm above 100kgs at about 185cms and have Movement Thunders and Movement Gladiators as my all-mountain skis, plenty stiff enough for the weight (and icy days) and wide enough for powder days but also brilliant for ploughing through the sometimes choppy, mixed conditions we get in Scotland. Highly recommended.
