Hi,
Being stuck in the UK, I am not going to get the chance to demo before I buy and go for my weeks fix in the Alps. I'm hearing great things about the TSTw but my local shop is suggesting the Elysians over the TSTw. Much as I want to play in the powder (when and if we get some!), I do still want to ski the groomers at speed especially as I'll still be spending some time on them with my two kids (5 & 7). Has anyone demo'd both skis? Does the TSTw give a better edge? I'm concerned that the Elysians will be too soft. Also I'm 5'4" and medium build (sorry don't know my weight in lbs...) and I like to ski agressively (intermediate to advanced), would I need to go over the 160cm in length?
Appreciate any help.............thanks.
