Can anyone offer opinion: my daughter is 14, a very solid 10-year advanced skier who prefers to actively ride her skis (versus aggressively driving them). She's 5'7", 140# and in good shape. Currently riding a Rossi Pure 60(!) we got her two seasons and 25# ago and now over-flexing it. Need to step up on the stiffness, without it turning into something that demands to be driven hard. Guidelines are super vague and without accounting for weight or height suggest advanced women go 80-90 flex index. I know all manufacturers will flex a little differently, but is this really a decent target range to start with for her size? Her feet are more or less done growing and height is about finished too. She may gain a bit more mass (maybe 10-15#), but I can't see her losing any, so if we want to keep these for a few seasons where would you all suggest we start looking in the flex world?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
