I'm seriously considering buying a new pair of Atomic Tacora skis for
BC telemark skiing for use mostly in the Oregon and Washington
Cascades. I'm mating them to a new pair of Scarpa T2X boots.

Does anyone have any opinions on the suitability of these skis for that
purpose and combo?

How about length recommendations? I'm 5'4" tall at 135 pounds. I have
two Tacora length choices: 163 or 172 cm. I've never used shaped tele
skis before. Which one should I get?

Thanks, John.
