I came upon this thread since Im petite (5'0" 103 pds) and am looking for a pair of powder skis. I currently ski the Volkl Kenja in a 149 (great front side skis and up to 4 inches of new snow). They aren't great in crud or tracked up power but are great in the bumps-very quick. I also have a pair of Blizzard Shivas in a 156 which I spend most of my time on. They ski short because of the rocker, waist is 105 and it is a heavier ski so it cuts through the crud and cut up powder without me being thrown all around Love them both for different conditions.
I live in the west and my playground is Vail-ski almost exclusively in the back bowls. I have been spending time in Utah lately so now Im looking for a second pair of powder skis. I tried the Line Pandoras in a 157-waist is around 105-rocker so skis short. Very light and could use these all mountain but I did get thrown around a bit when the snow got heavy. Any suggestions on a powder ski for a small woman? Hard to find because most are too long
