Replying to Ski Recommendations for Heavy, Intermediate Skier
Hi, I’m an intermediate skier and am 185cm and 230lbs (I’m heavy because of weight lifting ).
I mostly do groomed runs, these often end up with a lot of crud because I end up staying late. I also do some park skiing, mostly jumps and some boxes here and there but slowly want to get into rails once my box game is good. I do want to explore other portions of the mountain as I get better, trees and other off piste stuff. I live on the Canadian west coast and mostly ski local mountains.
As I do like hitting side hits, the park and being playful in general but also like carving groomers I'd say I'm kind of looking for a compromise between these things. I'm guessing I'll have to go quite a bit stiffer as I am a lot heavier than the average skier?
What Skis would you guys recommend I look at?
