Hello!
I'm finding the task of buying skis to be overwhelming. The only thing I do know is that when I rent them, the rental place always gives me 140s or 145s. I am 5'4, 140lbs. I ski greens and blues, mostly blues. I can ski steep trails if they're wide, or narrow if not steep, but I'm not confident on steep and narrow terrain. I live in the Northeast and we have had some great powder days this year, but there's usually a good amount of ice. I bought boots at the beginning fo the season, but I'm now looking to buy the skis and bindings. Online research only confuses me more.
Can anyone tell me what I should be looking for and make some recommendations?
Thank you!
