Therefor the xwings will do him nicely for a god few trips on-piste!
Have Lessons with a French teacher Peter as they are more inclined to teach you to let the skis run, opposed to a British teacher who will teach you to carve the edges more. You'll get more out of the xwings if you let them run.
I'm 6' and 14.5 stone and started on 150's I've now sold my xwing 170's due to an ACL accident and I'm intending to return on 160's
Take your xwings and try them.....If you dont like them try and partx them at your resort or just hire a pair and sell them when you get back to blighty
Enjoy
Thanks Huard for advice .
This time next week im going to be in Soll . Got a week of ski school booked . I guess the best thing is to just take them and just see how they perform on the slopes . Can any body tell me if i am better off getting my euro's while i am there ?
Thanks
Peter
