My youngest son really likes to carve. He's in line for the hand me down skis of his older brother. Unfortunately, the two boys are built completely differently. When he picked up the pair that he was going to be handed down, his comment was "Geez, these things weigh a ton." He's 5'9" but only 125 lbs - think pencil thin cross country running body.
So what I think that I'll be looking for is a lightweight midfat ski that doesn't have two sheets of metal in it but still won't be flopping around at speed and performs really well on groomers. He'll mostly be skiing out West but isn't super interested in skiing powder and trees like his older brother is.
Thanks for any suggestions in advance.
