Hello. I was happy to find this forum and eager for advice on which skiboards to purchase.
I 'm a former skier but haven't skied in years. My husband and three kids snowboard. I tried snowboarding but didn't care for it.
I recently learned about skiboarding and it seems like a perfect way for me to return to the slopes.
I'm 5'8", 185 lbs, bad knees. I was never a speed demon when skiing, was more interested in carving nice turns down the mountain. I expect to spend most of my time with my 11 yr old daughter on the greens, taking our time. No moguls or terrain parks for us. As for snow conditions, we live in the midwest so we head to Wisconsin or Michigan.
Given my inability to rent, I've narrowed down my choices after some research and would be grateful for feedback. I'd like to find a pair of skiboards that well balance stability and ease of turning.
Here's my list: 1) Spruce 120 STS; 2) Summit Custom 110; 3) RVL8 Rumspringa 103; 4) Summit Headwall 95.
Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions.
