Deciding what ski length to demo

Hi Ladies,

I'm a beginner skier. I've been skate skiing for some time but have just started apline skiing. I've taken a couple of private lessons and am fairly comfortable parallel skiing. I'm fairly athletic, love to go fast, and should (hopefully :smile:) advance fairly quickly. I plan on skiing as much as possible between now and the end of the season.

I've been looking at the forum and have decided that the first ski I'm going to demo is the Volkl AC2. I already have a pair of good fitting boots. The one thing I'm not sure about is what legnth ski to demo first. I'm 5'3" and 120 lbs. I was thinking either 156 or 153 for the AC2. Any recommendations?

Also, I was considering demo-ing the K2 Burnin Luv as well.

All feedback is greatly appreciated.
 
The AC2 comes in the a 156 the 153 is not a choice. That should make your choice easier.
I think you'd be very happy with it in a 156.

Go for it!
