Choice of ski length
The table here is intended as an aid and must not be followed slavishly. Skiing ability, terrain, packing and individual needs/habits are factors that influence the choice of length. Falketind 62 should be chosen close to your own body height.
General advice: Traveling in rough terrain requires shorter skis than open mountain expanses. For beginners, it is often easier with short skis. If you often ride with heavy equipment, the skis should be a little longer.
