Re: Well, I bought...a new ski!

If I may ask, how tall and heavy you are? I am 6'2", 220lbs, and the ski in a 184 felt just perfect for me on a big mountain like Louise. 

Svend,
Time has reduced my height to 6'1" and biking has my weight down to 195, so we are both big persons. I'm thinking it should be fine big mountain and I like your exuberance about the Sultan 94.

All,
The thought has come to me that instead of doing the Marker's, get the adjustable Tyrolia system. Greg had them mounted +1, reviews seem to indicate "on the mark" works well, as a soft snow ski perhaps -1 should work. I've argued that others consider an adjustable binding system, but, that may make more sense in an undrilled ski. I don't have any concerns about a second drilling. Am I over-thinking this?

BTW, this is the second set of skis I bought from Greg, the other is my Supershapes. He takes very good care of his "children".
