I need to replace my current skis - Salomon Q96 Lumen about 7 or 8 years old. I'm 5 ft and about 110 lbs. My current skis are 154 and are getting harder for me to maneuver as I age (50) and I try to protect my knees. I live/ski in Washington, have been skiing since I was a kid and am becoming a less aggressive skier. I'd like a shorter ski that turns well but can still handle heavy snow days. Choices are limited in sizes below 154 so I've considered the Santa Ana (93 or 98) but it seems maybe they're too stiff for what I want? I'm looking at the Volkl Blaze 94 pretty seriously - has anyone skied this? Also, the Secret 96? The black pearl 97 look like an option but the smallest size is 153, I'm a little nervous they'd be too long. Any input is greatly appreciated.
