Trencher wrote:Alastair and Huard, If you do end up buying these, a word on bindings. Any Tyrolia, or head binding should fit the carve plate, except the rail types. I put the SL 110 on the 171s. It's a carve binding with a 30mm stand height. It ends up rather tall, which I like. On the 155s I put SP 120 demo binding, which is 31mm stand height. I wanted to able to let other people try the 155s. For a demo binding it is very solid, and I didn't notice any difference in feel from the SL. Huard, you might want to go with less stand height for your knee, the LD 12 is 21mm.

I'm still thinking of going for Kneebinding but cant decide.

I'm hooked....got to have a pair!

The big question is what size!? I'm 6' tall and around 15st kitted up.

I was going to look for a ski around 165 or shorter to give my knee a little extra protection but cant decide...

Whats the your opinion?

Interesting looking ski, I'm thinking about buying a pair.
With my reconstructed ACL and PCL in mind I'm thinking of staying on piste for 2 - 3 years, what do you think about them as a on piste ski?
I will phone the supplier today but I reckon I'll get an unbiased opinion from you!

I'm not going back on my XWings (coz i sold em) so was thinking about a ski around 160 with plenty of flex...

Do you think they are suitable?

Thanks

Huard

Nice skis....Few $'s I Guess!?

When do they get a run?
