Helpful Calculations:
- For Classic
- Your Height in Inches x 2.6 + 15 = Approximate Classic Touring Cross Country Ski Size
- For Skate
- Your Height in Inches x 2.6 + 5 = Approximate Skate Ski Size
- For Backcountry
- Your Height in Inches +/- 2 to 6 Depending on Skill Level, Use, and Specific Skis
Reasons to size your skis shorter, closer to your chin:
- You are a beginner or intermediate skier
- Your weight is lighter than average for your height
- You like to make short, quick turns
Reasons to size your skis longer, closer to the top of your head:
- You are skiing fast and aggressively
- You weigh more than average for your height
- You plan to do the majority of your skiing off the trail
- You are purchasing a ski with significant rocker in the tip
A shorter ski will be easier to turn yet not as stable as a longer ski.
