I’m a 6’1 male 175 lbs and consider myself more of an intermediate than beginner. I am set on buying these but just don’t know the size. Last year I rented 170cm for the season and was comfortable with the size but want to get more aggressive with my skiing. Would you recommend making the jump to 176cm for these since the only other option would be 168cm. Either way excited to finally own a pair and not be renting for the season anymore. Great video and any input is appreciated 😃
Get the 176mm, but also get the 82mm basalt if you're set on an experience, they will still be good as you progress as they have much better edge hold and stability. The 76 are really beginner skis and won't do well as soon as you take some speed.
Hello! The Rossignol Experience W 76 in 152 length is my first ski, and I've been liking it so far. I am 5' 7" and about 175 lbs, skiing in the Northeast. I've been skiing two seasons, but am still skiing easy greens. At some smaller mountains I can go to the top, but others I am struggling with endurance and leg strength. At the larger mountains I am skiing runs from the lifts that go halfway up the mountain. I am starting to look for a second ski to grow with. I am wondering about the Experience 78 in length 162, or Experience 80 in 158 length. Would one of these be better suited for my needs? Thank you!
