    Wachusett 22/23

    Perfect. I will probably ski that same time slot once a week. Most likely days are M/T/TH.

    What are your goals for the 2022-2023 ski season?

    Finding new midweek ski buddies among the Divas and/or getting comfortable skiing by myself. I lost my regular ski buddy in 2018 and haven't been back on the slopes since the pandemic started. Get a better brace for my knee/remain uninjured. Ski trip with my brother in the Berkshires depending...

    Wachusett 22/23

    I'm excited to ski Wachusett this season. I learned to ski there back in the mid-90s. It's been more than 15 years since I skied there last. I just moved back to Western, MA from Southern, VT in September. It will be amazing to see the changes.

    I'm close to Berkshire East, Mt. Wachusett and Mt. Snow and will be looking for ski buddies, especially mid-week. Will definitely post in the meet on the hill section in Dec/Jan depending on the conditions

    Another "are my skis too long?" Thread

Demos are usually new models, higher performance skis that allow you to swap out different brands/lengths throughout the day. As a beginner, renting shorter length skis, the next time you go would be fine. I would try going...

    Another "are my skis too long?" Thread

    That seems ridiculously short for someone your height. In my experience rental shops seem to err on the side of shorter skis for women. I'm 5'0, 155 lbs and ski a soft flexing, wood core 160 cm ski, Head the Link. I'm a slow, cautious skier. When I demoed before I bought my last pair, I...

    Another "are my skis too long?" Thread

    Definitely too long and based on what Jilly said, too stiff. Ski sizing definitely takes a lot of trial and error.
