New Allmountain twintip

I’m looking for a new allmountain twintip ski, to replace my former park ski ON3P Filthy Riches. They have to carve okay on groomers with small to medium radius turns, be around 100 mm underfoot, have tip and tail rocker, not too heavy. I would really like to buy some new ON3P Kartels, but I live in Europe and they are impossible to get over here.

The ski will ride 60% groomers, 20% park and 20% sidecountry. I have a backcountry specific ski. I’m 6 feet 0.8 inches, 187 lbs, not a agressive skier.

I have thought about these skis:

Salomon Rocker 100

Faction CT 2.0

Line Sir Francis Bacon

K2 Shreditor 102

Someone who tried these skis and can compare them, say something about them or suggest a other ski?

Thanks!
 
I have the bacons in a 184 at 6'3 (i bought them when i was like 6' and they are decent but i sort of wish i went with the 190, heres why; they ski kind of short so for ripping terrain i would prefer the 190, HOWEVER; skiing tight trees, moguls and park leads me more towards the 184 for manuverabiility. I love my bacons as a generral good snow ski i have the 108 waist from the 14/15 season. They are super playful skis more than they are chargers so for jibbing around they are probably one of the most fun skis you can get. Not to mention they are super stable and i dont have any issues with chatter. They hold an edge well too, overall you cant really go wrong but its up to you to decide between the 184 and the 190.

What concerns me about the Sir Francis Bacon is their ability on groomers, where they will be used a lot. But nice to hear your experience with the skis.
 
ON3P offers free shipping worldwide, though you will have to pay customs. For me that wasnt too bad, talk to them. They are really helpful!

I know they do :-) But when I have payed danish tax and customs the ski will cost 940$.
