Advice on ski length

Post by havana » Wed Jan 29, 2025 8:19 am

Hi everyone,

I'm an experienced telemark skier with around 10 years of experience. For last 9 years, I've been skiing on the Völkl Kendo (184 cm) with NTN Freedoms, but now I'm looking for new skis. Currently, I'm considering the Black Crows Serpo with Inwild Meidjo bindings.

The only thing I'm unsure about is the length. I'm 184 cm (6'0'') and weigh 74 kg (163 lbs). The Serpo is available in 180 cm and 186 cm.

I mostly ski on groomed runs (95% of the time). I'm not a freerider, but when there's fresh snow, I enjoy taking some inbounds powder turns as well.

Cheers!
