Womens Ski's?

Hey guys;

as an avid snowboarder for most of my life, my new girlfriend is looking to get ski's this year as we are expecting to go to the mountains about 5 or 6 times this upcoming winter, with one of those trips being to Seattle to go to mnt. Raynier (i think, she is from seattle and she told me we are going somewhere around their.)

She has being sking for awhile and usually rents but is good enough that she can keep up with most of the poeple on the mountain. Any suggestions of brands and models? she weighs about 135 and shes about 5 foot 8. she would rather have control over speed.

I was looking online and found some Last year models, Rossignol Saphir skis with the bindings for about 280 plus shipping. Anyone heard of these models? As i know nothing about skis, any help would be appreciated...

i know its a little early to be thinking about winter but for me this is one of my favorite seasons, cause i get to go snowboarding!
