Need a recommendation for an all-mountain twin. Do most of my skiing in PA and the east. Have the seths for powder out west. I am 6'3" 210lbs, spend most of the time on groomers, trees and bumps (and powder when we get it). Minimal time in the park. Want something forgiving enough for the bumps, quick edge to edge and stable for the hardpack/ ice which we usually have here. Not looking for a sluggish, damp ski. If none of the three (Surface Double Time v Volkl Bridge v Armada ARV), anything else that I should be considering?

Thanks.
 
you're definitely a big guy, and those surfaces in 180 would seem kinda short personally (i'm 6'3''). i don't know how stiff they are, but if that doesn't bother you..surface is sick. the ARVs are too soft for my taste. i played around with a pair of the new volkls and they look really fun..stiff but a lot of rocker. they look fun for goofing around in the park, trees, and powder, but they'd probably be pretty terrifying on shitty icy east coast stuff.

i have a pair of liberty hazmats in 186 for what you're describing. a little stiffer than the ARV but not rockered...they're good skis. i wish i had centermounted mine though. they'll also be the cheapest ($300 on levelninesports)
