Ski length, explained
Height is a starting point. Your skiing tells the rest of the story.
There is no universal size
A shorter ski generally feels easier to turn; a longer ski can provide more stability and soft-snow support. Weight, skill, rocker and intended terrain all change the decision.
Catalog lengths
Piste 76: 146, 154, 162, 170 cm. Summit 88: 158, 166, 174, 182 cm. Drift 104: 172, 180, 188 cm. These are available demo sizes, not a personal fitting prescription.
