Hi all.
I am 20 years old, weigh between 180 and 185. I am 5'9, strong.
I grew up skiing on Lake Wentworth in New Hampshire, and most recently have spent parts of Summer on wallum lake in Massachusettes.
I am an expert slalom skiier off a drop, I can carve and cut hard and fast. I am only an advanced skiier overall because I can only START on one ski about 1 in 4 tries. I would like a ski that will not restict me once I get up on one, as, once moving, I am an expert slalom skier, but will help me perfect getting up on one.
I was thinking Connelly Outlaw. Any other suggestions, or comments on the outlaw.
I hope I have not over-stated my talent.

| I ski an HO Triumph...nice wide, shaped ski...good for skiing up to 32 mph. It's helped me to be able to learn to ski the course. The guys at the shop can help you figure out the size, but they helped me find one that I'm really happy with.

I would push you towards the Triumph as well. I think that it is one of the most versitle skis out there. you can take it into a course at 34 MPH and be happy or ski it slower and still get a great response out of it because of the extra width in the design.
In terms of size you are pretty much a true 67" in the Triumph. If you went with a more traditional ski design (not the extra width) I would lean you more towards a 68". I think that you would be very happy with the 67".
