This may seem like a silly concern/question because of what I see alot of NSers riding.. but I'm actually buying my first pair of skis next season and I'm a little hesitant to move onto wider skis.
This season I'm riding rented Line Masterminds.. this would be my absolute last choice but it was the only option to rent and I didn't have the funds to buy skis. Considering my preference of riding is BC/Glades these skis are probably pretty ridiculous.. but I like to think that if I'm comfortable on other skis I should be comfortable on these. I can ski pretty much anything on the east coast, and I went over to CO before christmas and felt pretty confident in some of the harder trees/bowls at breck, vail, a-basin, and keystone.
I'm starting to think about my options for next season and I feel like something in the upper 90's in waist and with some rocker in the tips/tails would suit me best, but I feel weird about getting something like that when I see the things everyone around me is riding (home mountain is Mt. Creek but I go up to Gore Mt. most weekends).
Any assurance/advice/reccomendation/whatever you wanna tell me to help me out would be awesome to make me feel a little better hahaha.
P.S for ski reccomendations I'm 5'10ish and growing and around 135 lb.
Thanks!
