What Size Slalom Ski Do I Need?

This sizing chart is to be used as a reference only.
Always check with the specific ski manufacturer for further assistance before making a purchase.

Weight is the most important factor in choosing ski size, so if there is a conflict between weight and height, side with the recommended ski length for your weight.

There are always exceptions to the rule that need to be taken into account. For example, if you are 5'5" (165cm) tall and weight 200lbs (91kg), you should look for a 67" ski.
