Advice on new skis?

[fujative92]

i'm about 5'5 135 and skied on 159 04/05 fujas last season.. i'm growing fast. i'll probably ski like 55% park and 45 all mountain next season. does anyone have ski suggestions for me. i'm looking at the 06 fuja but what size?

169 fujative?

 

[fujative92]

ya sounds good but i want um to last at least two seasons

 

[fujative92]

no shorter than below my nose

If I were you I would wait tell the season before you start lookin and then you will know exactly how tall you are and have a better chance of gettin a size that will last 2 seasons and maybe 174 pes if you want a stiffer ski or some ar6 176 or some stls

im 5'7 on 180s and 183s, forhead is short, skis should be at top of head man

i'm 5'9 and have 182 vct's and 188 jp vs j's, and then here and there i'll get a ski thats 170 cuz its a shitload of fun, just try a bunch of different things and see what you like

i ride short skis and i feel gay for it. im like 6'4" and i have 179 PEs. i would have gotten bigger but those were the biggest ones that were on sale. and i got them really really cheap so it was worth it

thats not that short..

 

[Min_Soo]

for some who is 6 ft 4 it might be a little short

 

[iLikeToSkii]

you can't choose ski size just based upon height...you have to account for weight too
