Salutations, I am seekin some new skis like a heat seekin missile. I am 5'5" 105 pounds and still growing. I am a type III skier and I am looking for a mid fat to fat all mountain ski. I am looking for a forgiving, playful (soft but not spagatinni) ski to jib on features (NOT PARK) and experiment with shreddin da pow switch. I want a maneuverable in the trees ski that can still arc turns too. BTDUBS I got da cash money so I got $750 dolla budget.

I am looking at the Rocker 2, SFB, Opus, JJ, Caylor, Kung Fujas, etc

Any binding suggestions would be great too.

Thanks!

 
Go opus....the bacons will be a real good ski but the opus is soooo sick....said this a bazillion times on here now but it's the best ski I've ever been on....love it
 
Wow a meh on the opus?.....not flaming but have ya rode them?....I ask because I was super impressed and have yet to read a review where someone hasn't been absolutely blown away by that ski....and anyone I've actually spoken to who's rode it says the same thing....it's one of those skis that are going to be talked about for a long time like the lizzies....now I hear good things about on3p too but the opus is jus like wow....seriously if I were to describe what it's good for it'd be damn close to what the op wants.
 
The rocker 2 in 170length would be good for you. Its 115mm underfoot so not super wide, but you will not need the width as you do not weigh much. There super light though which will be good for you. As your small you dont want a big heavy ski as it will make you tried quicker. The rockered tip and tail are really buttery and there a good carving ski too at around 20m radius. Definatly give them a try. While you aretesting those see if you can try the other skis sujjested here too and see what suits you.

Binding wise any 12 Din binding will be fine. Id get a STH 12 driver but a griffion, PX 12 or Peak 12 could all work just as well.
