Hi

Need help choosing the right ski size - 183cm or 193cm
I am 6 foot and 170 lbs. Begginer - Intermediate skill level.
Have seen different opinions about this.
What is you advice ?

Thanks,
J.

Will be skiing mostly Alps, not super steep. Variable snow conditions. Thinking on mounting AT bindings.

Advice would be to not get Shiros because they're wide and not get an AT binding because you shouldn't be going out of bounds as a beginner/intermediate skier.

Get something more in tune with your skill level. I'd say maybe a 179cm Volkl Bridge and a Marker Griffon. You'll save money and you'll progress a lot faster.
