Short Vs Long Skis - The REAL Difference

In this video we’re breaking down the REAL differences between short and long skis. A lot of people think longer skis are automatically better, but that’s not necessarily true. Stay tuned as we discuss factors like: Control and maneuverability - Shorter skis tend to be more nimble and easier to pivot. They can be better in tight, tree-filled areas. Speed and stability - Longer skis are generally more stable at higher speeds and better for bombing down groomers. Their length helps smooth out bumps. Float in powder - With a longer surface area, long skis can better float on top of deep snow rather than sinking. Shorter skis require more work in pow. Learning curve - Short skis are generally easier for beginners to turn and control. Long skis require more strength and experience. Ideal ski length - We’ll provide guidelines for picking the best length based on your height, weight, and skiing ability. Rocker profile - Rocker and camber play a key role in ski characteristics too. W
