By Ranked #1221 - Cross Country Skiing November 3, 2008

will karhu be making a 195 cm version for this coming season? or just up to 185 cm?and for a guy weighing in at 195 lbs that is not a real muscle-y skier, any thoughts on whether to go with 185 cm or 195 cm?

We are making a 195cm length for 2008. The 195cm length would be appropriate for your weight, but it depends on your ski preference and use. Going shorter with the 185cm length would provide better grip with the waxless base, and more manueverability in tight spots. The 195cm XCD Guide would provide slightly better glide, and more stability from the longer length. Hope that helps. Graham at Karhu
