I’ve decided to take advantage of Corbett’s end of season sale and do some early Christmas shopping for my 11 and 13 year old daughters.
The 13 year old is about 5’7” and 125 pounds. The 11 year old is about 5’5” and around 110 and probably still growing. Both have been skiing a little over two years in the NE (PA and VT). They were both starting to ski parallel this past season on greens but the younger one is definitely more aggressive and ahead of her big sister. She’ll generally ski blues and will follow me on easier blacks.
They both have been on Craigslist specials (148s) the past two years. Was thinking I’d stick with more of a beginner/intermediate level ski and bump them up to something the mid 150 range for length. Wasn’t looking to break the bank but was hoping to get a few years out of them before they progress. I was looking at Atomic Vantage 75s and Head Pure Joys. Anyone have any experience with either of these or others that they could recommend? Thanks!
