Mike, you want to go with the 125mm skins. That will help give you the best coverage. When sizing skins, especially when the tip and tail are close in size, going by the tail size is the best way to size skins. That is the case because you get the most traction from the rear 2/3 of the ski.

Hey Mike, None of the sizes in stock would be ideal for your skis. Typically you want to get as close to the shovel width as possible and then taper the skin accordingly. It really depends on the amount of rocker as well. I'd say when they get more in stock that the 125mm would be a great size.
