I'm tired of skiing powder in my afterbangs when im in the mountains, so i've decided to save up for some pow skis. I'm 5'8 145lbs and I ski about 70% powder and 30% all mountain when I'm in the mountains. Does anyone have some suggestions on what skis I should buy?
 
How much powder are you skiing in? What waist width are you looking for? Do you want a stiff, charging powder ski, or a soft, buttery powder ski?
 
Wow i should have definately put more info in. First off, the most powder I've experienced is probably 3 feet, on average I probably ski in 2 feet. Width wise, anything with a 100 mm waist and up is ideal, and I would want something with a medium or soft flex.
 
you usually ski in 2 feet?? thats dope. EP pros (next years) a little bit stiffer with narrower tips. This years are epic but they are a little soft, thats why next years.
 
snoqualmie thomas, we've been keeping it a secret from you.

And Bent Chetlers? They weren't my favorite(becuase One Lifes charge better and are in the same category) but seem to be what you're looking for since you said mediumish flex
 
Well I've been lucky this year. I've been fernie and jasper, the snow has been pretty good the times I went. But now that i think about it 2 feet is probably an exagerration on my part, it was probably like 1-2 feet.
