Folks--
My brother is looking for a pair of skis. He has not skied in a few years, but was a very strong skier who liked groomers and some bumps. Not much into trees, but would like to dabble in some from time to time.
He has found these two skis. The Atomic SX7 looks a bit too light for him IMHO. He is about 6 feet tall and 175 pounds.
The Elan SX's look like a good match, but I don't have specs for the 160 cm model. I imagine it probably has a deep sidecut....
Anyone have any experience with either ski?
He is not really in a position to demo many skis and is going to be leading a new ski/snowboard club at our high school alma mater, so we're talking about 10-20 days tops a season.
