Should I get a carving ski or pow ski?

I'm looking to expand my quiver soon with end of the year sales popping up everywhere. I currently ride some chronics that are great all over the mt. but really suck on harder snow because they have seen so many rails. I would like to expand my quiver to 3 skis but I only have the funds for one pair.

Do you think it would be better for me to invest in a hard, charging ski that would slay groomers and hard snow (78-90ish waist, minimal rocker, long camber) and or get something like an all mt/pow ski (100-108 waist, good amount of rocker)? I am on the east coast btw.

 
With you Being from the easy coast I would say a true carver would be used more often but rockered midfat skis are ridiculously fun.
 
Get the mid fat, and keep the edges sharp. It may not have quite the grip of a true carver, but it will do better than your dulled chronicles by quite a lot. Plus you will be able to rail groomers in everything but Ice.

carves as well as my dad's carving skis, no problems on groomers
