XCD ski for larg-ish person

Hi,

I ski in Scotland (icy often :D ). Looking for an XCD ski to go with some Salomon XA8 boots and RAID bindings (SNS-BC) I have. Weighing in at 105kg -ish, what would be a good option - not looking for touring speed, I have double cambered skis for this.

Thanks
Roddy

Hello Rod, What kind of skiing are you into? Earning your turns? If you ski icy terrain, go for the relatively skinny (not 100mm waist!) stiffer metal edge skis... tell us more.

Rod, can you narrow it down? Do you want something wider & shorter or some 205-210cm skis for touring? I would check out the Asnes web page for ideas.
