Will this cause issues when carving switch? My worst nightmare when taking off a jump switch is catching my brake on the lip and really don't want to find out the hard way. Does anyone else ride a similar setup? Give me some advice/feedback, thanks.

You will probably be fine but 80mm or 85mm would be better, not sure if they make either size still so 90 might be your only choice

You'll be fine.

More importantly. why are you riding such a skinny ski?

They were all I could afford. Definitely like the feel of a wider ski though.

I ski 90mm brakes on an 83mm waist, and it's fine
