After years of easy gear fittings for my kids, I have found myself wondering what to do about my fast-growing teen boy and I hope some other moms have advice. I have a tall, very skinny 13 year old (currently 5’8 and barely 110lbs with men’s 9.5 feet). He is a wisp of a kid who is just starting to hit his big growth spurt. He has skied since he was a toddler and he has good technical skills, but he isn’t very aggressive. We ski every Sat/Sun in winter (in the northeast) plus ski breaks out west, so good fit and quality are essential. Men’s skis and boots seem too heavy and aggressive for his toothpick legs. He is now too big for kids size gear (no more kids price season leases!) Would women’s skis and boots be an option? Any thoughts on lighter weight gear for a very wispy, tall boy? Thanks for any and all advice
