The mistake would be buying a >185cm >27m ski!

What you have there appears to be a women's FIS/Masters ski (not WC/COC etc. where the minimum length of 180 is enforced). It'll be a blast, even on pretty tight courses.

The dims from Atomic's 08/09 race catalogue were listed as: 100-68-87 r=24m (model no: A085012)

For the OP, if you are at PSU, shoot me a PM.  I have a former roommate and ski buddy who was on the team when we were there.  Tussey is an interesting experience to say the least.  She ate my ACL in 2003.  I'll see if I can put you in touch with my old roommate who is still in contact regularly with the ski team.
