I discovered PMTS about a week ago. Bought the book and DVD and finally understand why I was stuck in mediocreville. I can't lose the wedge, I was trying to steer with my legs and body, my balance was all wrong and, .......................................... etc.. Anyway, I haven't been this excited about skiing in a long time. I will be starting from scratch and doing all the exercises while spending time with my daughter. It can't get any better than that.
My 4 year old daughter has taken 4 lessons and is learning the wedge. She doesn't quite have the musle control and strength to hold the wedge with out the edgie wedgie. She is loving it, and I already see her pulling the inside ski in, so now I want to teach her to turn, but first she needs skis.
What length?
She is 44 inches tall. Do I go with the recommendations of chin height or shorter? I'd like to get 2 years out of them, but resign myself to knowing I probalbly need to keep them short this year.
How agressive a side cut and radius?
Some of the possibliities in the local shop:
Blizzard Blizzzi 70,80,90 radius 6M(90cm)
Head Sweet Thang 91,65,84 radius 5.3m(87cm)
Head XRC 50 103/65/88 radius 5.3m(87cm)
K2 Luv Bug 95,70,91
Thanks in advance for any input.
Rob.
