Aight so I have been skiing on 1st gen Pocket Rockets and Have enjoyed them, but no am looking to upgrade. I really want a ski comfotable on the steeps and anything I'd encounter skiing in summit county (long bump runs, open bowls, stupid tree skiing, dicking around on groomers. Park performace is not really a big deal.

I'm 5'5" 125 lbs and am considering Line Prophet 90s, Mojo 90s, Karmas, Sprayer BCs, or ARVs. Anyone go any input? (I'm leaning to the sprayer BCs, I'll be demoing them in december and they are cheap)

5 mountain pass. I usually hit keystone and brek. The PRs were great but I want to get away from foam core, and get a slightly more responsive edge. I forgot 76 Big torubles If I can find em.

Check out the Chronic Blends, same mold as the Prophet 90, but way poppier with the Carbon Matrix.

That's exactly where I ski, I ski on a 05 Prophet 80, I haven't heard much about this years Prophets, but I think the Prophet 80 or 90 would be a great all-mountain ski for here. Also, you should try a Chronic or Chronic Blend because they are also very good all-mountain skis.
