 Poster: A snowHead
|
I bought the Salomon X-Wing Tornado Ti's......but seeing as that my Volkls are from a "heavier time" in my life I decided to come down a size from 173 to 166's....I'm 5'11 & just under 13 stone??
Have I done right???

Silly question I am sure - but does just 7 cms make that much difference
Judging by the responses it must make a big difference - but how differently will they handle

Right hold on folks.....these skis aren't arriving to S+R in Dublin till next Thursday, I'm sure I have the possibility to change my order.

dazman, (Way) too short. Change them for (at least) 173 - if not 177.
BTW.. I'm 10 stone, 5'6".. my 169s (Stocklis) feel about right - on the short side.

dazman, Give the guys in Dundrum a call and upgrade to the 173, Dan is the main man to talk to there and he should look after you really good guy.
