I've skied K2 Obsethed since febuary and now i tore my bindings out of skis. and I need some new skis. And ive figured I need some skis with steel plate so this dosent happen again. I don't think wood core is the answer for me because im 2 meters and i'm 115 kilos, so wood cores are to weak. But I ski park mostly and i decided I wanted an all mountain ski like k2 extreme og k2 kung fujas something like that. BUT I need steel cores. what ski should i buy?

I think what you're looking for is a wood core ski with a metal plate that you screw into. I know that's similar if not what Moment is doing and I'm assuming most other companies do something similar as well.

You won't find any ski with a steel core. You will find some with metal plates and a metal matrix over the wood core though. Also some skis have a metal spine. These are all mainly added to stiffen the ski though, so not entirely sure about actual metal mounting plates in the core.
I mean dang a steel core ski would be what superman would ski, not us mere humans. haha

Your probably right:P I was looking at skis today and I figured out that the Teddy baer had some metal inside. but those are pow skis and i don't really want that.
