SFB vs. Hellbents

So these skis seem pretty similar.  I was just wondering what the main defferences were between them.  SFB's are obviously a little smaller but how is the flex.  I am moving to CO after skiing the East Coast all my life and want a ski that is good for bc booters but can still perform well under speed and on groomers.  I am 6'2" 200lbs and a strong skier.  I raced for 18 years and am pretty good in the park... any suggestions/ comments would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

^yeah I was thinking about it and not really sure if I want such a soft powder ski for all mtn daily use.  This is prob going to be my everyday ski so I'm leaning more toward something like the Scott P4 now.  Actually I might order a pair right now!  The 09 graphics are way better but you can get the 08's pretty cheap right now...
