Thanks for all the input guys! I ended up going with a 69" 2016 HO CX with an XMax boot and I love it so far.

Hi everyone, I'm in need of a new ski and am torn between options/sizes. I'm an intermediate skier at best, typically ski 15 off at 33-34mph, 21 y.o., 6'2'' 205 lbs., relatively athletic and looking to improve quickly. I would love to start skiing the course, but unfortunately I rarely get the opportunity to. I most recently skied on a 2012 67" Radar Senate C and liked it, but I no longer have it. I did at times feel that it was a tad small. I am wondering A) if I'm looking at the right skis w/ the Senate, CX, TX, and possibly the Connelly V, and B) what size I should choose. On most size charts I'm looking at a 69", but I've heard that the 69" Senate is pretty burly. Any recommendations/ advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks! P.S. If anyone is located in the DC area and skis/ knows of some spots to ski, I'd love to chat!
