I’m exactly your size and have the 184s. Never once wished I went longer, even though I’m happiest on skis slightly longer than that generally.

Check out some of the really helpful answers I got to a similar question 2 pages back. Short answer: avoid the carbon-infused plastic and it should punch. I ended up in the Salomon MTN Summit and...

Glad this thread popped up! I’m looking to replace my aging pair of Ranger 94FRs, which I love dearly, mostly for their pop and energy, as well as their ability to cut loose and slide through tight...

Just a quick update on my search for a "proper" fitting touring boot. After trying on a bunch of different boots in this category, I ended up finding that my foot got along really nicely with the...

A full size increase by punching the toe would be huge, as I really do notice a big difference in ankle fit when sizing down. I definitely don’t expect any touring boot to match the fit or...

Similarly helpful; thanks. I fear you’re right, and I totally get that (and have been dealing with it for the last three seasons in my Hawx!). The tricky part I’m trying to work out is the tension...

Thanks this is helpful. Need to stay away from the carbon. Also interesting to hear the peak runs short. I am in a 28 in my redsters—definitely feel like it’s a performance fit. (I measure 29.5 or...

After much trial and error, and many trips to various shops to try on different touring boots, I’ve come to the conclusion that no touring boot currently on the market fits the way I want a ski boot...

Big fan of my 112s (184) in lots of different types of snow. Yesterday in VT, we got 6 inches of snow, and then an inch of rain. Took the reckoners out in the hottest pow you’ve ever skied, and they...

It’s out of print, but my Fischer Ranger 94 FR fits the bill. It’s super fun and lively, handles a lot of conditions well, carves decently for its shape, and is not super demanding, although it’s...

Test it out first before grinding. I found that I didn’t have to grind the shock absorbing ones, even though I had to grind my stock boards about 1mm. Maybe because the rubber compresses slightly?

Am I the only one who has yet to find an adjustable pole that doesn’t fold like a wet noodle whenever I push hard to do jump turns in steep terrain? I just use regular ski poles for touring—never...

The complaints about it being hard to scrape are true. One thing I’ve noticed that helps is to let it dry and cool completely before scraping. (Overnight even?) When the wax is still even a little...

Awesome thanks! I’ll try to get ahold of a M/L.

Anyone know how the sizing on these breaks for the Redster CS? I am in a 28, but the atomic website only has s/m available. Would there just not be enough strap to pull it tight? (I need to be able...

I absolutely love my "cheater" GS skis for my beer league (and a lot of early season hardpack groomer-ripping weekday laps). They're 182 with a 16m radius, and 65.5mm under foot. I'm 6'1" 170lbs. I...

There's a pair with dynafit radicals scattered in the woods at the bottom of the NE face of Wilson Peak somewhere... Dang I miss those skis...

Bump and a price drop. $500 for the bag and battery! It's a great pack in really good shape--just don't need it here on the ice coast!

Bump. I had thought the price is pretty fair, but willing to entertain any reasonable offers!

Used about 30 days over 3+ seasons. Minor scuffs from use; otherwise very good condition. Battery/Charger included. Never deployed in the field. Only selling because I moved from NM to VT and just...

For what you're describing, I have an old pair of (2017) Atomic Redster Doubledecks--they're 182, 65 under foot, with a 16.5m radius and it's extremely fun. From what I understand, it's a "cheater"...

I'm a hair under 6'1" and my poles are about 46". That's pretty short, but I hate long poles--they get in the way, and I can't get forward. I also hate it when my poles drag on the groomers.

I...

Just got my first day on these. Love them as a touring boot, but add me to the list of people who couldn't imagine skiing these every day inbounds. Maybe if you are very light, or prefer a soft boot...
