Powder/All mountain ski

well the blue ski is pretty nice, it's poppy and turns quick

the red ski is heavier and floppy

ferreal though there are lots of skis. how much do you weigh? where do you ride? what terrain? how much snow do you get a year? do you want to ride park with it? do you ski trees? do you drop cliffs? do you want full camber? full rocker? mustache rocker? do you like to turn a lot or do you straight-line everything? there are so many different options, "which ski is best" is way too broad of a question.
 
weigh about 130, im 5'11''. I ride white pass washington,but i might go up to baker once or twice. ya i ski trees. i dont want to ride park with it. we get a little bit above average amount of snow a year. i dont turn a lot but i dont straight line stuff either. im getting into cliff drops but nothing big yet. camber/rocker wise i dont care.
 
forgot two things. i ski powder, but i would also like it to be able to handle moguls to a degree( doesnt have to be great with them). also i would like it to be twin tip.
 
You want something like 115mm and up or something between 100mm and 115mm, line opus or sfb would be great. On3p caylor or billygoats, BG are made for tree skiing i think because of the tail that help alot. Rossi s7 or super7. You have a big choice, whats tour price range ? And do you have some compagnie that you like better them other ?
 
not super expensive like pro model hellbent 799.99 expensive but i could go to like 599.99. it would be cool to stray away from big brands but i still like them( im riding line prophet 90s right now.).
 
Look at on3p, I don't have a pair, but every single person love them. You can pm ginko, he works for them and he might be able to help you to find the best ski for you.but if you ski tree like you said, the billy goats will be good, they have a pintail ( don't know if it's the apropriate term) like the s7 but they look way better. Im buying a pair of caylor next year, im stoked.
 
I ride ON3P caylors in a 191 I'm came of Line Prophet 100s, I have to say the caylors are the best powder ski I've ever used, their powder performance is great I can rip through the trees and put down GS turn in powder, on groomed runs they turn like my prophet 100s, ice they grip better than my prophets, moguls you can make them work, but why would you take this ski into the moguls and they bomb it through crud and chopped up conditions. The reason why I like this ski so much because it's so versatile, oh did I forget to mention you can ski in pow as easily as skiing forward ... BUY THEM, BUY THEM, BUY THEM
 
Same situation, except im 5'9" 140-150 and looking for a ski that will do well all over the mountain, powder day or not. Im an advanced/expert skier
 
i have 184 line sfb and have absolutely fallen in love with them.. they can handle pretty much anything your looking to throw at them
