Weight
Hop on some scales
Chest
Measure the fullest area of your chest. Stand up straight and breath normally.
Waist
Measure around the narrowest part (typically where your body bends side to side), keeping the tape horizontal.
Hips
Measure around the widest part of your hips, keeping the tape horizontal.
Tips:
If one of your body measurements is on the borderline between two sizes, order the smaller size for a tighter fit or the larger size for a looser fit. If your body measurements for hips and waist correspond to two different suggested sizes, order the one indicated by your hip measurement.

I'm a flat water river paddler, and these are the best shorts I've tried - previously used bike nicks.
The Vaikobi are extra light and the fit is very comfortable with an added draw string at the waist to assist. And for me the added bonus of being UV protective is especially important.

They just give you a great feeling you can feel the movement of your ski through the seat of your bum , strange thing to say but they put more excitement into your time on the ski
