Another "pick a ski for me" complaint

alright now i need help.

i bought a pair of Sick Day 95's in 179 to replace my set of older AR7's and i feel like they are not the right ski i am looking for. i bought them from Evo have not mounted them yet so i will probably return them if i get advice for something else. i want a ski that will be more jib capable and i think the sick days are more resort and all mountain? i basically ski east coast the whole winter so its the typical ice but i do venture out west to Colorado and Whistler several times a year. i want a more park capable ski that i can still rip on a groomer at the end of the day but not having too much underfoot. vertical is not huge at my home mountain but i would want to take these west with me. I'm really considering the Filthy Rich in 176 or 181 but other options I'm thinking off the top of my head are Chronics and AR7 but i need talked into some more!

oh and i am 5'9", 160lbs, advanced and like to charge, getting into park riding more.
 
Sick days are definitely the wrong ski but chronics would work, ar7s would work and filthy rich would work too. If i lived in the US, I'd get ON3Ps.
 
I would just get the 176 Filthy Rich, probably the best park ski design out there at the moment. The Chronics are a good ski, I liked skiing them. The shape and everything I've heard leads me to believe the Filthy Riches are the best. The rocker profile looks perfect with just enough camber underfoot. I want some but it's just too expensive to get them to the UK for me.
