Hey everyone,
I am looking at purchasing a new pair of skis, but I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for.
Basically, I'm no expert skier, but can do anything up to most black diamonds at most places. I prefer sticking to cruisers and blues.
Anyway, the last time I bought skies I had a choice between the longer or shorter ski and I choose to go with the longer ski, but I find they are too fast for me and hard to control.
I am looking for a ski that will make it easier for me to just cruise (i.e not too fast, easy to initiate turns etc.). I'm guessing that means a shorter ski and wider, but what I'm asking is basically what kind of ski I am looking for? Not necessarily what exact ski (brand and model), but style of ski.
Thanks for the help.
