I ended up getting a pair of K2 SODO skis. Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion on ski size. I definately plan on getting lessons soon as I get the things figured out. What model of ski do you use? Appreciate the suggestions.

It was also suggested that I look at the K2 Hardside at OMC. It is a bit more expensive, but supposed to work well for both groomed and non-groomed skiing. Comes in a 174, 181 or 188. Thoughts? Garth

I've lived in the Portland area for ~25 years and have enjoyed climbing Mt. Hood most every year. Some years several climbs and some years not due to weather. I've grown weary of the trudge down the mountain and would like to learn how to use Randonee equipment. I've bought some Fritschi Explore Bindings and a pair of Scarpa Spirit4 boots. I bought some skis a couple of years ago but have determined they are not right for me. They are Atomic TM:X 191s, still in the plastic wrap, made in 2000. I'm ~6'2" and 275#s. I don't ski. I'm looking at Atomic Kailis or RT86 as a possible replacement ski. Suggestion on either ski and correct length? Suggestions for coaching? I would likely be on Mt. Hood for most of the use. Suggestions? Thanks, Garth

How long is the Downmat7? I think the possible dimensions are 47x20, 70x20 or 76x26.
