I'm having new ski envy-- my boys (16 and 10) got new [fat] skis this year and I'm jealous! I've demoed a few and I've read tons of reviews but I'm having a hard time. I ski in the Pacific Northwest and I'd really love a pair of skis that are good for all conditions, especially powder.
I'm 5'3", 105 lb., advanced, prefer off piste over groomers, love bumps. Current ski is Rossi Attraxion 6 in 146 cm (74 mm waist). Based on skis I've demoed, something around 150 cm seems about right. Anything 159 or longer seems too hard to control.
Here's my list:
Atomic Elysian: I loved it in 150cm; at 159 it felt like a completely different ski and I didn't like it
Atomic Century: haven't demoed but I think it would be similar to the Elysian. 156 cm?
Salomon Geisha 153 cm
Volkl Aura 156 cm
Moment Bella 152 cm-- does anyone know anything about Moment skis?
Line Celebrity 90 151 cm
I'd appreciate comments/advice/additions to this list.
Thanks!
