Hi, new member here, and the father of a new high school racer. My son's experience prior to this high school season was limited to Nastar and a few light race camps. He is 15, 5'11" and 170lbs.
He needs GS skis and I found a great deal on the following:
Atomic Redster Doubledeck WC GS in 176 (adult non-FIS). The radius for the 176 is 21m. Bindings are the Atomic 16's.
I'm starting to think I jumped the gun on these and that I should've got him some sort of GSR ski. I can't find any information on the flexibility or stiffness of these particular skis.
Curious if anybody here knows the skis and can opine about their appropriateness for this type of racer.
Thanks in advance.
