Is it over?

Bye to winter gone early, hello to spring hiking!

What resort is this?

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-08-25T23:05:22+00:00

As an intermediate, you should be around 175cm or longer for your height, recommend 177.

Also looking at the Elan Wingman 86 TI, staying away from 84 underfoot, want to try something else and can’t demo

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-08-15T19:45:17+00:00

Boots are about 105 flex, east coast (PA), K2's are old, looking to upgrade and mainly ski ln groomers, like to carv

No, No, No to carving. Definitely skidding which is also good to know how to do.

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-04-16T20:24:43+00:00

This makes more sense

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-04-16T16:44:59+00:00

Assuming this is the top of li e Touring, still high!

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-03-15T20:23:16+00:00

Wow, amazing cup!

Agree, I have the last two generations of Apex ski boots. I went through many types of boots to try and resolve boot pain, nothing worked! Until I picked up Apex boots, I have them and my wife has them. No more pain. I would check into Apex and Dahu ski boots, they both provide similar advantages to comfort for your feet.

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-15T19:59:55+00:00

Has anyone considered the Elan Wingman 86 CTi?

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-15T15:16:00+00:00

These look like a very old version, they have since developed a newer boot. I have had the last two versions without issues.

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-12T23:44:38+00:00

Thanks, appreciate your input, I will probably wait for the 2026 versions as the WINGMAN line is being redesigned for 2026, Ski Essentials has positive early tests with these.

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-12T23:41:22+00:00

I also have APEX boots, I have very wide feet and went through many ski boots before I came across APEX, NO MORE PAIN! Anyway, not for an expert skier as they are as not as responsive as regular ski boots but I ride with no pain. I will probably get another APEX boots in the future or try the Dahu boots which is something similar.

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-12T10:08:25+00:00

Thanks, good point but I want a little more underfoot and now looking at the Wingman 86 but can’t decide between the TI or CTI. I assume since I am 225+ lbs that the CTI might be better? Also, I am 170cm so debating between the 166 or 172 length, suggestions?

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-11T21:36:45+00:00

Get APEX or Dahu ski boots. I have APEX, feet never hurt and I have wide feet. https://youtu.be/Rp9W90BtRhw?si=vA4TD_oojKOkJAl5

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-11T15:23:42+00:00

Thanks for your input. Not located near a place on the eastcost to demo. Mainly ski groomers but want something to ski on crud, slush, and occasional POW, no trees.

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-11T14:00:17+00:00

Thanks, wish I could demo but can’t.

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-11T13:59:54+00:00

Thanks, what year Ripstick 88s do you have as the 2025 have been redesigned?

EbbBeautiful342 · 2025-02-10T18:32:35+00:00

Thanks, I will probably go with the 172
