Ski Diva Extraordinaire
I keep reading in different places where women comment that they can not ski a Woman's specific ski because they are to heavy for them. I have a review that Busts that Myth.
Mr Skigirl decided to try out my 152cm Fischer Vision 70 over the weekend. I have 2 pairs now a 152cm and a 146cm.
Mr Skigirl's stats: He is 5'8" and 210lbs. He has been a ski instructor for 26 years too. He is an excellent skier. He skis on the Fischer RC4 World Cup Slalom ski in a 160cm with a 10 meter radius. He loves this ski. He has demoed a lot of skis over the years and always skis a race ski because anythng less is not enough ski for him. Mr Skigirl is very honest when it comes to what he likes and does not like in a ski. When he does not like a ski I know it! :yell:
Mr Skigirl had a blast on the Vision 70. He pushed the ski very hard and it gave him everything he asked. He skied it very fast and it never hit a speed limit. He also never lost an edge on anything. He was amazed at how well it held an edge. He rides rails and this ski railed perfectly for him. You should have seen the trenches he left. He really had a lot of fun and wants all of you ladies to know that even at his size he never felt like he did not have enough ski under him.
He said it held a great edge and was very quick and very stable in any size turn at any speed. He said it has great rebound too. I saw that right in front of me, the ski popped him right off the ground
Trust me when I say that he really pushed this ski. He skied it for 3 hours and never wanted to go in and get his skis. The length was not short for him either.
If you need to see what kind of skier Mr Skigirl is just go to my website. There is a link under DOD, other stuff, Ski Pictures at Keystone.
My only point here is to say that you really need to try a ski before you discount it based on a label. All to often I read a comment that says, I can't ski that ski because it is a Woman's ski or it's labeled as an intermediate ski etc... try it before you trash it. Hey you never know you may just find something you love.
