It really depends on how hard you charge...Super hard=obsetheds, because of stiffness, medium is JJs or Lords, then for just like a super fun ski, Bents, or Bacons, something nice and soft.

i guarantee that you would absolutely love bacons. i have the 09s and they are so boss. you can really butter around, but they still hold up suprisingly well at high speeds, not to mention that they carve like a knife through hot butter. for more info... pm me or check out my review

i would go with the obsetheds they charge super hard but if your looking for a softer ski go with the bacons
