    What are your abilities? What type of terrain do you ski? With this information we can give a reasonable answer. Otherwise ask at the local ski shop. Your ski boots are the most critical piece of equipment. Jim W

    A starting point would be skis that come up to your mouth or nose when stood on their tails. You should go to a reputable ski shop and tell the guys there what your abilities and favourite type of skiing are. Ideally you should go to a shop at a resort and demo a few pairs of skis to see what you like. iansand
