Decision made..Watea 98 at 186 cm.? We will see about bindings.? Thinking about power rail

I think I want to also buy the koa 84 for gloria.? She is 160 cm tall (about 5'3" and 130 lbs)? She skis slow and stems occasionally.? What do you think 150 or 159cm.? This will be her out west, off-piste ski.? She is very game to ski in new terrain.

Congratulations on your purchase; maybe now the twitching will stop??? ;D

This is probably too late, but Lynn skis the Muanga at 156.? If the KOA is twin tip, then 159 and if not then 150. And very glad she is open to new territory.? What is her "front side" ski currently?


In the end some brand loyalty won out and I think they should be a blast. Nice review by Dawg that I posted on the binding thread.

Gloria is currently on a Fischer Vision 73 at 152. If she likes the Koa at Snowshoe, the Vision may end up on Ebay.  They have a demo binding and are a little heavy. 

Joe - good to have your contribution to the board.  Keep the comments coming
