Replying to Czar vs. Gun vs. S5 vs. S6 , Help

Moses:
I know that there are plenty “pick a ski for me threads”, but since they often receive a couple of helpful replies I’m creating this one.  I’m limited to these skis for they are the only ones I can get good prices on.  Hopefully the skis will be used in lift accessible Utah snow.

For my skiing style I prefer to take my time in soft snow, I like trees, tight turns, soft and playful skis, natural rollers, bumping into stumps and logs, and maybe trying tricks of small drops and doing straight airs of cliffs no higher than 25ft.

 I will NOT be charging sun and wind crust chutes, strightlining, billygoating, rock hopping, hurling off big cliffs, and all out charging.  I don’t want a 195 cm 2x4 than could run over/run through a gaggle of small children all the while im not feeling a thing

I can find a lot of info on the Czar, but not much on the other three

I know that maybe another ski besides these 4 would better suit my needs, but out of the 4 skis which you recommend. 

If it helps, I/m 5’11 and around high 150s to low 160 depending on how much I eat/poop/pee.  I don’t know my exact weight because the scale at my house is broken because someone jumped off the stairs onto the scale and broke it.
