...great advice all.....
W,
As mentioned, that shell-fit is the #1 test... Learn about what type of foot-volume you possess...heel, ankle size...high or low mtn_peak over your instep, what width forefoot....etc.
$.01...for some education into the fun, technical aspects of skiing...Ron LeMaster's "The Skier's Edge" is the best $20 you'll ever spend..(just my $.01)...there are other great books, but this is a pretty good start.
One can also learn by observing fluid skiers coming down the trails with the ability to maintain great balance.
Skiing the view/terrain well is pretty enjoyable....I think you'll find that after a while...you won't be concerned with how many skiers pass you...or how many you pass...
NewEngland offers a lot of varied terrain...and is a lot of fun...outside of the race course.
