alright i need some help with finding a ski im 6' 2" 175 im looking to get something over 180 waist atleast 105 max. at 125 i need it to be stiff for charging but also fun in powder and trees my max. price is about 450 and not over
 
Not sure about pricing for most of these but here it goes:

Ninthward Firstblood - haven't seen the 09s yet but last years look sick. pretty stiff and looks like a nice all around ski. 89 under the foot.

Moment Tahoe - At 96 under the foot these might be a bit fat for the park but will be good for charging and most everything else on the mountain.

Line Motherships - a bit fatter than what you described (waist = 111) but i'm sure you could make it work. They seem like a solid pow ski and will most likely be softer than the prophet series.

Line Prophet 100 - similar to the motherships, not as fat, stiffer.

Armada ARV - softer flex, solid all mountain ski.

Bluehouse District - 108 underfoot, stiffer than their park model the MR, looks pretty nice.

Salomon Lord or XW Lab - lord for more all mountain versatility (87 underfoot) XWs for more big mountain and hard landings (107 underfoot)

Atomic Pimp - 103 underfoot, 31m turn radius, a ski that is built to charge!

Yea, i know. LOTS to choose from.

so my top 5 in order for you would be:

Atomic Pimp
Line Prophet 100
Moment Tahoe
Ninthward Firstblood
Bluehouse District

There ya go, good luck choosing!!!
 
^ sorry i though you meant waist 80 - 105

new list in my own stoke order:

Bibby Pro
JJs (for some rocker)
Motherships
Districts
Atomic Thug
Moment M1
Pimp
XW Lab

 
i would suggest either Moment bibbys or RUbys. bibbys are stiff under foot. but have a softer tail and tip. they also have rockered tips and tails which is great for pow. it is a very fun BC ski. my favorit. if your looking for something with more of a traditional camber. try the rubys. they are 110 underfoot, and they have 3 sizes each with their own flex. by the way bibbys are 115 underfoot. but i would go with moment for sure. very solid skis. and a super legit company
 
because of your price range, id look at pimps from last year (same ski) or bluehouse districts, as theyre on sale. either one is gonna be dope.
 
does anyoone no a pair thats cheap of where they are cheap or if they want to sell them to me
 
In my personal opinion, you're going to have a hard time finding a good fat ski under $450. I'd go with the Prophet 100 or the Motherships, simply based on the fact that they are somewhat cheap and a legit company.
 
if your looking for some killer skis for cheap check out bluehouse. they have the 176 district with a full twin and waist of 108, perfect for just about everything, they also have the district 187 that is stiffer a bit narrower and a 3/4 tail. they also have the MR which is 93 underfoot a park oriented ski that can still shred the mountain. you can buy a brand new MR with a PX 12 binding for like 448. check it out.
