im not that big, but im 5 10 and 200 pounds. i like big, fat, stiff skis. i dont like to ski anything under 175ish, BCs are damn nice for me, id like to try the pistols, and the mother ships are also really nice

You might want to look at the '04 Atomic Tweak, they are wider than last years, and have the atomic beta tech. system which makes them a little stiffer...basically an all around solid ski!

I would rate them like this:

mad trix mojo = super tough ski

Pistol = Pretty tough ski

Scratch BC = kinda tough ski

Pocket Rocket = Not for your bigger crowd

The Nordica beast would fall in there between the Pistol and the scratch's

My .02 cents.
