Hey all, looking for advice, maybe getting back to skiing after 15 year break, I skied for about 20 years in the Northeast and a couple trips out west , but that was about 15 years ago, My youngest son (13) now wants to ski , so I'm looking for advice , I'm so out of the new technology below are some questions maybe someone could help with??
1- whats "in" now? I remember Parabolic Shape skis were coming out when I left skiing
2- could you recommend a used ski to look out for on Craigslist / ebay ? I don't want to spend allot till I know I will stick with it ($100-200)
3- Is it better to just rent? what do I watch out for in rental skis?
4- would you buy your own boots and then rent skis?
5- What would you recommend for my 13yr old son ? never skied before, 5'8" athletic
Any tips would be much appreciated !!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks
