alexm Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Hello, I started the ski this year in June, i would like to take a 2014 A3, i'm currently running at 28 and 15'off , but i progress fast... 145 lbs for 5.5 foots - i'm on a S2 65.5 On the HO website it's written 66 between 130 and 160 lbs, but will have a difference if i take it in 65 ? I should take it in 65 or 66 ? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller TFIN Posted October 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted October 28, 2013 Alex, I think I would go ahead on the 65". TF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Ham_Wallace Posted October 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted October 28, 2013 Go with a 65. I am 181.5 on a 66. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller DavidP Posted October 28, 2013 Baller Share Posted October 28, 2013 @alexm Don't retire your S2 just yet. You may still like it over the A3. I've been on the S2 for two seasons and tried the 2013 A3 this summer, and now back on my S2. I felt more balanced on the S2, 34mph 22-35off.

Baller Ham_Wallace Posted October 29, 2013 Baller Share Posted October 29, 2013 Go with the textured bottom technology on the 2014. A little softer, a lot better. Easy to maintain a tight line without sacrificing speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller bigtex2011 Posted October 30, 2013 Baller Share Posted October 30, 2013 If it is a 2013 go with the 66. IMHO the 66 was the best out of there 2013 line up. t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Chef23 Posted October 30, 2013 Baller Share Posted October 30, 2013 Frankly I am not sure why you are changing skis right now. For where you are in your progression the S2 is a good fit. I would ride it for another year then think about a new ski I don't think the A3 will help you progress because it is going to be a little less forgiving at slower speeds due to being narrower. When my son was about 145 lbs and running from 28 mph up to 22 off at 34 mph I put him on a 66.5" A2 which has taken him to about 5'7 and 160. If I had him on an S2 at the time I wouldn't have switched but he was on something older and beat up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
