Great thread. I am looking to get back into competitive skiing after a 20+ year hiatus. I use to ski on the connelly concept, but didn’t have the same experience as others. Then again i progressed from a set of cypress garden techniques. Nonetheless it sounds like picking up a aira, graviton, or momentum should all be good for getting back in the groove. One thing i am confused over is ski sizes and speeds. I am 185 and it sounds like a 43 should do it, however not understanding the speeds in the 19+ mph range. My guess is if you run a hotter speed you probably ride a smaller ski. Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
