Am thinking about this ski for a 5'5" 105 lb. growing 14 year old, incredible telemarker? Looking for input, is it too much ski for his weight?kjkeeffe

Certainly not, just keep in mind it is essentially a park ski so the bindings will be mid-mounted and if he is more into big mountain, this probably isn't the best choice. Also, I'd go for the 169 cm's so he can grow into them a bit, 159's will be too flexy as soon as he hits 120 pounds.
