T_Cummings New member Mar 19, 2014 #1 what should your skies be up to for height should they be as tall as you or to your nose?
2 270on420out Active member Mar 19, 2014 #3 AT LEAST to your nose. It's stupid when I see edits of people with 145s. You're not skiing anymore. You're on snow blades.

Labattski Member Mar 19, 2014 #9 I usually like my skies around 20,000-60,000' because this is where most weather occurs. Oh wait op meant skis...

OzzyJ Member Mar 19, 2014 #11 snow blades are the best BTW 145 isn't a snowblade it is just a child ski
Scotty_Boy Member Mar 19, 2014 #14 My skies are really tall, I'm hoping when I grow up I can touch them when I stand on my tiptoes.
milk_man Active member Mar 19, 2014 #18 I like skis that are as tall as me. Or a little taller than me, but nothing below my nose for sure
Alvaro Member Mar 19, 2014 #19 i like park skis as tall as me, and powder skis like 10 cm taller than me

skiminnesota Active member Mar 19, 2014 #27 Standing on the tram i typically judge people negatively if their skis are not at least as tall as they are. I assume they are from Texas and should get off my mtn. haha

H H.V.HotDogger Member Mar 20, 2014 #31 When determining the height of your skies, you must first take into account how big your faunt is.
-MK- Active member Mar 20, 2014 #32 As tall you to 4 inches taller than you for pow, and top of nose to mid forehead(ish?) for park, preferably for myself.
