Why didn't he like it ? What level skier is he and what was he on before?

[dave2ball]

He ran into money problems and need to get rid of it.

Is there a size chart somewhere for HO skies? I think I'm right between a 66 and 67. 6'4" currently 172 pounds. This seems like a good deal, I'm in the market for a new ski but with all the options not sure if it's better to demo something first? I've never shopped for a ski before, will A3's and the other new skis start showing up for sale slightly used pretty quickly or does it take a while for slightly used skis to make it out for resale.

@omland what speed do you ski at?

[Omland]

@MattP 36mph. I just started skiing the course this summer. At the end of the summer I was just starting to get into 22 off at 36mph. So I guess sometimes I'm still at speeds below 36 but hoping to just be at 36mph most of next summer.

[MattP]

@omland from traditional skis specs you are just over the edge at 36 for a 66. I do not know the new chart for the A3 but I have not ridden it yet that's my opinion as a 36 skier.

[Omland]

@MattP when you say just over the edge for a 66 that means you think a 67 would be a better size?
