Playful Powder Ski

I own 190 08-09 katanas and I feel like their more for charging massive lines and sadly very one directional. I also have a pair of walls that I really like on groomers/park b/c of the playfulness and feel. But i need a pow ski.
I have neglected to keep up with the new skis for this year so i'm asking for help.
I'm looking for a playful powder/but slightly all mtn ski to mess around on. McConkey turns, pillows, and some switch landings. A floater that is more center mounted than not.
Any suggestions/options that i should look at?
thanks
 
just got my LINE Elizabeths, 110 under foot, almost symmetrical, supposed to be a soft playful ski that can hit it up all over the mountain and in pow. im about the same height and weight (5'8" 150 lbs). cant wait to get onto some snow with these babies.
 
Surface New Life in 184 or 194!

151-121-151mm

Symmetrical, lovely rocker shape, flat underfoot. It'll be able to hold it down in pow, big lines and all mountain.

 
I'm going to have to say they are going to be too soft and short for him. Lizzys are made to be really wide park skis so if hes looking to ski a ski thats made almost only for pow he should look at something different. surface has some good options, the crj isn't made to be super playful but could be good as well.
 
I'm looking for one to compliment my quiver. So a ski that would contrast the long, strong and straight katanas...
checked out the surface new lifes and i like the sound of them.
symmetrical, fat, floaty, playful
I'm noob on how rocker feels though. What should i be looking for? progressive? flat?

 
sfb in the park??????

but really, the bacons are 115 underfoot as opposed to the 127 or whatever of the EPs. i am under the impression that the bacons are more of an all mountain jib ski while the ep pros are more powder specific (but still playful). I ordered the SFBs but they havent come yet
