165’s tend to sell out.

Are you saying those skis ,even new, has thin metal at edge ?It’s a tough find to get a 165 Fis SL ski used in decent shape. They do exist. Not sure I would do it without seeing it unless from a trusted source. Some of those skis have very thin edges to begin with new.
If you want to go to the shorter one, there’s usually a lot more available.
Yes, many new Fis skis have very thin metal edges. Last years Blizzard is pretty thin. My Fischer gs ski is thin. (Few years old but new) Drives me crazy.Are you saying those skis ,even new, has thin metal at edge ?
Shorter will not work for me , I am 6 foot tall .
I thought it was only me seeing this that metal is thin , Thank you for this info. BTW, Those elans I have for sale has Thick metalYes, many new Fis skis have very thin metal edges. Last years Blizzard is pretty thin. My Fischer gs ski is thin. (Few years old but new) Drives me crazy.
Shorter will “work”. Depends what for. People bigger than you were racing on 155’s years ago. Swiss racer Ramon Zenhausern is 6’8” and he’s on a 165 too. (Though it wouldn’t be something you could buy.)
No, just skis , I have bindings.Do you need bindings, too?
Last season I bought a new pair of Dynastars and paid a lot more than a new pair of Blizzard’s because the Dynastars have much more edge. A lot more. I actually wouldn’t mind picking up a pair of the Blizzards. I prefer them in spring corn snow.I thought it was only me seeing this that metal is thin
Please do this and you can send me pictures in message .I have a pair from a few years ago collecting dust at my parents'. I can see if they're in good shape or not. They were coaching skis for a while.
20 SL points would put you at about 85th in the world (men), or about 65th for women. So, better at SL than Federica Brignone.Unless one is < 20 point FIS slalom racer, really thin edges make absolutely no difference except shorten the life of the ski. Doubt even 20 points is low enough.
Yeah it’s “faster”, that speed difference is gone in less than half a not great turn. It’s just a crock of crap. You could have a shop grind down a decent size edge if you want.
FIS skis available to buy have nothing to do with wcup racing skis, even less Formula 1 cars.
Lol. And she still won’t beat Mikaela if she had the skinny edges and Shiffrin thicker ones. It’s really not like F1 racing at all.So, better at SL than Federica Brignone.
