This is the second version of the ski size calculator. I have worked out most of the old bugs.  ENJOY!

Shorter skis are easier to control.  They allow you to turn and stop faster.  They are great for slalom, freestyle and lower speed skiing.  Longer skis make slower turns and are beneficial in deep snow and higher speeds.

The proper size poles will provide you with a strong stance and will improve your overall mobility around the mountain.
