These skis will work well for the kind of skiing you described. They are stable and you won't get tossed. They are heavy (the weight listed is per ski) so keep that in mind. Also, as we've all learned, the topsheets will get chewed up. Some other stable skis with waist closer to what you used to ski are the G3 Tickets and Volkl T-Roll, those skis might also be better at biting the ice we ski here. At this price ($263) the Piste Pipes are a great deal, though 159cm will be too short for you.
