With the hopes of a season with as much snow as last year, I am looking at buying a new pair of skis for this season. My only problem is I want skis that can shred the Mary Jane moguls and float in Utah powder, which seem like two different worlds. I know skis have become significantly better with the new rocker design but have any skis been able to combine moguls and powder skiing? Any suggestions on which skis would be best? Thanks
 
I rock my JJ's on the East Coast and can rip groomers or ice. I take them out west and anyone can tell you they're good in powder. Everyone has their opinion and honestly I'm sure there are a few options that can do it all.
 
Thanks for the suggestions, the Armada's look sick but are these skis to fat for a mogul ski? I may be wrong but the ones I have been looking at are closer to 100mm underfoot, like the Rossingnol S3 or Volkl Mantra. Thoughts?
 
The Armada Alpha 1 would be a good mogul pow combo ski. It is very agile on edge and it is a very lively ski. Additionally the early rise will still be able to float in pow.
 
there are a few of 100mm waisted skis that are good all around. Off the top of my head i can think of the moment pb&j, the fatypus l-toro, the nordica zero and the new rossignol mini s6 (not sure of the namebut i know its a 98 waist but similar to the s6 in shape and rocker )all of these skis will handle moguls and ski powder, not the best in either field but all of these skis are pretty well rounded.
