Myself and two friends just bought a 1980 Ski Nautique. We're really enjoying it so far. I'd like to purchase a decent slalom ski that all three of us could use, but I'm thinking our heights and weights vary too much a single ski to work for all three of us. I'm 5 '9" 150 lbs, the other guys are 6' 170 lbs and 6' 2" 180 lbs. Anything decent that would work for us all? If not, I'll get one for myself. Can anyone recommend a specific ski for a smaller guy like me (5' 9" 150 lbs) that they're fond of? Looking for a mid range ski for both skill and price in both cases.

Just adjust the speed a bit. Lighter skier skis a bit slower. Extra surface area is better for stability. I would go with a 67" ski.
