I don't have a login for any ski forums so I figured I'd ask here.
My 4 year old has outgrown his 70cm ski's. My 6 year old has outgrown his 90's.
The obvious plan would be to give the 90's to the little one, I just checked, they're the perfect length for him, and get the older kid (used) ski's that fit.
Trouble is, the 4 year old is tiny. His 14.5 ski boots actually seem to fit this year, last year he was swimming in them. Those itty bitty boots are too small for the 90's. I just checked and adjusted them as much as I could. They're set up for about 17.5 I'd need to move the bindings about 1.5cm or 2 closer together. I'd need them remounted, I'm at the end of adjustability.
So which would be best, move the rear binding forward or the front back? To minimize needing to remount both ends.
Forward is supposedly tighter handling and back is better for powder and stability? What's better for a learner who (fingers crossed) might venture off the single kids run this winter?
Will any of this even matter for someone who insists on skiing between my legs on the bunny slope and eating fries in the lodge? Counting helmet and winter coat, he might be 26lbs.
