    -5 sounds like it might be the better choice from everything you described. -2 from recommended on a 158 ski is pretty substantial, especially if she’s not driving the front of the ski.

    They will fit with a slight bend and dremeling down the inside plastic on the brake arm. Search here in tech talk or youtube for bending techniques. Sth2 brakes are easy to bend.

    If you like longer radius skis I’d steer away from the Mpro series. It’s sidecut definitely pulls you into turns but with it’s heft and stiffness it gets a bit hung up in steep technical terrain. ...
