For any skier, there is no "one perfect ski length". To find the best ski length for you, we recommend starting with your weight and skiing ability. From there, you can modify the length based on your skiing style and favorite terrain. Please use the following charts to determine the best length for your needs.

Adult Ski Chart

Weight (lbs) Beginner Intermediate Advanced/Expert
100-109 139 143 147
110-119 144 146 150
120-129 146 150 154
130-139 150 154 159
140-149 154 159 163
150-159 160 164 169
160-169 165 169 173
170-179 170 174 178
180-209 172 176 180
210-219 175 178 180
220+ 178 180 182

 

Height Considerations:

Height does play a role in some situations, but has the smallest impact on choosing the correct length for most skiers. Only account for height in these scenarios:

 *If your height is greater than 6'2" and weight is less than 170lbs, start with the 170lbs-179lbs category. If your height is less than 5'2" and weight is greater than 150lbs, start with the 140lbs-149lbs category.


Now that your ski length is determined, use the Skiing Style and Skiing Terrain charts to customize your length:

Skiing Style

Cautious minus 3 cm
Average no change
Aggressive plus 3 cm

 

 *Skiing style is not determined by skill range.  Many athletic beginners may choose aggressive if they prefer to ski fast but are still learning technique.  Advanced skiers may choose cautious if they prefer to ski at lower speeds and are primarily concerned about control.

Skiing Terrain

Groomed/Frontside no change
All Mountain plus 3 cm
All Mountain/Powder plus 6 cm
Freestyle plus 3 cm

 

Now that you have found your ideal length, any ski that is 3cm longer or shorter falls within your size range. For example, if your final ski length is 174cm, and you're looking at purchasing a ski within the 171-177cm range, you're all set.  If two different ski lengths fall into your ideal range, a general guideline is that the shorter length will typically offer more control, while the longer length will offer more stability at speed.
