Used two seasons about 4 weeks - great ski with lots of fantastic reviews and they are fast... would suit an athletic, agressive skier who likes speed or an aspiring intermediate who is looking to start going off piste. I love them but my ageing knees are telling me they are too long :(

£100 ONO PM me if interested.

155's don't seem very long to me. I was using 165's last time I was ski-ing, and they seemed a bit short to me. How long are ladies' general purpose skis meant to be? Up to your nose, or what?

Hmmm well I'm 5'2" and I ski on K2 One Luv's and they're also 155s - suit me perfectly. But then I'm a shortarse ;)

Kate,
If you're a shortarse, then I must be a longarse, because I'm 5'10'' :D

Mrs H is around 5 foot 6 and she skis on 159s which are perfect. They come up to around her nose stood on the ground, but these days there is differing opinion about what length is best. You should ski on what you are comfortable on.

My wife has the K2 One Luv skis which are 153cm but actually measure 157cm long, this is because K2 measurements are of the base which will be in contact with the snow & not the overall length of the ski. True Luv & One Luv 153 skis are probably well suited to someone who is 5 4" but will just seem big. Hope this helps.
