MadMoneyMan asked:
I am an very high intermediate to advanced skier. I can ski on steep terrain, glades, piste and powder. I never ask questions like this because i like to think i know what im talking about skiing since 5 years old. I just recently bought a nice pair of Salomon X-Wing Tornado from Evogear.com(highly recommend this site) and im just about 5′8″ 150lbs. I do like my skis just a little bit shorter than recommended(for me easy for glade skiing) But when im standing next to my skis of my boots, the skis run up to about my nose. When on boots and skis, the skis are down to the middle of my chin. Now are these too short. I like to think not because i am a shorter person for my age(16). And way just a little less. These are really good skis that i got at a bargain. What do you think about the size. I would **** to take these back when i got these online. One more question. I’m thinking about buying my older brother a nice pair of Salomon’s. What do you think about Salomon X-Wing 400’s? Are these good skis for an intermediate?
