Best Pow/Big Mountain Ski?

Hello everyone.

I am looking for a ski that is super floaty, yet can turn "fast" in the

trees and have enough stability to charge down big powder mountains at

higher speeds. I still have yet to find one that really works...

I've heard that the "ON3P Cease and Desist" is a good one. I've also

been looking at an "Atomic Bent Chetler" and a "K2 Hellbent". Others

finally include "Armada JJ/Magic J" and the "Atomic Automatic".

I'd like to lean more to something that has more than a 120mm waist, if

this is possible, and with a twin tip(Although I am not much of a trick

skier, sometimes I like having the luxury)

Thank you all.
 
The automatic is one of my all time favorite pow skis. Feels so perfect in tight trees and wide open areas. Definitely make sure to look at this ski closely.
 
Pow skis about 5 or so years ago were all 125+ underfoot but now have become a bit narrower. Flotation is more than simply width now- camber/rocker profiles, tip and tail shape are all big factors in how a ski floats. This ski was designed by Sage and Dana, who spend 100% of their time in deep powder. It is their ideal version of a perfect pow ski and I think they came up with something really awesome.
 
Thank you. These had tempted me for awhile, but was unsure because of the waist!

Now, to find it for cheap...
 
I still like Grace skis "kiwi"or some of the powder skis by faty-pus

Praxis also has some killer sticks

Check them both on my website.
