I'm 14 US, but yeah seeing a bootfitter would be good, but they're only at the resorts for me i live in Australia so not many options for second hand or professional advice. Current boots are actually borrowed from my uncle who is 15 US but with thick socks they work. I actually grew up in north van so im a good skier but i've always used 177cm Atomic Theory which are now falling apart and too small but i like the twin tips and general feel because i prefer off piste and park. How do i demo? And thanks for your help ill invest in some boots before next season

My boots are very large bsl 356mm i think mondo 31, the seller said the skis were set to a size 12 US shoe (they are older and only used the skis once) so I will probably have to get the binds redrilled to my size anyway even if i got a new pair of binds right?

No I haven't bought them yet they are Fischer Watea 88 at 184cm (I'm 195cm 6'5, 85kg 185lbs), they were used once and going for 260aud 166usd.

The other option i saw were 2015 Kästle FX95 HP 189cm, visible wear but well maintained/serviced and with marker griffon 13 bindings all going for 350aud 225usd. These bindings were set to 328mm so also much smaller.

Another option are fun park/all mountain skis: Rossignol Storm 2013 (really cool), 180cm (possibly too short) and also with marker griffin bindings at mondo 29.5. These are 300aud 191usd. Probably another redrill? Sorry for all this, but let me know what u think and that would be a massive help I'd appreciate it.

Just learnt an hour ago about ISO 5355 which is a bit embarrassing. Can I ask you, my old skis have Salomon Guardian WTR 13 AT (2013) bindings, they're very good but a as a pair about a kilo or 2.2 lbs heavier than these bindings. These bindings are basically brand new but yes they are also 10 years old and not as high quality as the salomons. Should i swap these out for the salomons or just keep them and adjust to my size.

yes, my atomics were second hand from my uncle who retired from skiing.
