Dynastar Legend Pro Rider Alpine Ski - 2009 BCS

Should be, as long as you don't need a DIN higher than 12.

much to stiff for a beginner try the k2 silencer for a beginner ski

You might want to look at some other skis if you are a beginner-intermediate level skier. This is a ski that is know for being best for advanced to expert skiers. Its a pretty hard-charging ski.

if you havent already get the XXLs. they are not hard to ski and you sound badass anyway.

There a few key differences in these skis. The XXL is Fatter, Stiffer and has less side cut. That translates to better stability, Wider longer turns and Better float in deep snow. That being said the Pro is more user friendly, Easier to turn in tight trees and more versatile in snow that is not powder. Both are great great skis.

I really recommend you get a ski with some rocker. It really makes skiing even more fun (seriously). I ski Salomon's and would recommend the Czar for a new powder ski. It has tip rocker only and normal camber under foot and in the tail. I know people are still skeptical about skiing a rockered ski, but they shouldn't be. Whatever you get, it should have rocker, I guarantee you'll love.

Like most of Dynastar's skis, the Pro likes to go very fast and is very stable. It is also stiff and with it 100mm wide waist will float you in the powder. If you decide to go with these, considering how tall you are, definitely go with the 190 (maybe even consider going a bit longer if there is a bigger size, but I don't think there is). Hope this helps.

I don't know I am 5'5'' 150 and I was wondering if they were too long? Help please

I don't think so. The 176s are fine for someone of your height and weight.

The new Big Dump is an AK gun with a rockered nose. The XXL has a bit of an elongated nose. These are unchanged. Not as fat as most, but still a big mountain dominator.

Same construction as last year, no rocker. Stiff skis that perform well at high speed.

I think that you should definitely consider these skis as one of your top choices. They are powerful, go fast, and can arch fast long turns. They will also float well in the deep pow. Not the best pick for quick turns and bumps. If you are looking for a non twin-tip ski that is very stable at fast speeds, floats well, and has a powerful construction, this will definitely be one of the best for those categories.
