Hello, i am 6'2 and 190 pounds, i have skied for around 6 times and was wondering if 110 flex boot is too high for me? Also does anyone have an opinion on which Rossignol ski is best for me the Experience 77, 84 or 88?

Thank you!

If a bootfitter put you in a 110 then it's fine. If not, I'm sure you'll be fine your heavy enough, as long as you like the fit. As for the skis, what terrain and style are you aiming towards and why those rossi skis?

Mainly Skiing groomed runs, those rossi skis because of the price range and availability in my area. Which one would you choose? if neither then what do you recommend thats around the same price range? Thanks

Well I (and most of this site) ski more freestyle orientated skis so you probably have much imput on those types of ski. However wide is better for softer conditions and narrow is better for ice, just think what conditions you normal encounter and you should be just fine
