Byron,

The Salomon's are good boots and have one of the best customizable shells in the business (which allows you to go pretty tight with a shell fit, then cook and conform the shells (not just the liners) themselves.  Did your Salomon dealer do this?

As for ski demos..what length of each ski did you try.  My guess is that the Avenger was quite a bit longer than the volkl AND the tune was bad AND you might need an update on modern technique to get the feel for skis like that.  Truth is Rossi Avenger line is a very user friendly ski with a decent performance envelope.

Welcome back to skiing!  Where have you skied so far this season?

Liam
