Ski Decision Help?

I am looking for an all mountain ski, 170-177. I weigh about 150 pounds and am about 6 feet. I'll hit some decent sized kickers, i don't know jump size, and a few rails, but lots of all mountain.
I've narrowed it to
Chronics
chronic Kryptonites
Amplid C7's
Amplid Antidogma's
4frnt STLs
Can you help me decide, or if you have other options for me? Thanks

First off, I don't know what kind of a.m. skiing you like (short vs. long radius turns) and what your ability is, but I would put your size range at 174- 183 cms for an all around ski.  If you plan to do more "dececnt sized kickers" or powder , go longer, more rails and maybe moguls, then go shorter.

For what you mentionned, I would recomend the Line kryptonites over the regular chronics becuase the wider waist will be more versatile out of the park.  For 4frnt, the MSP may be a more all-around ski than the STL, again depending on how much park or a.m.  Aramada AR6 may be another good option.  Best of luck, KiP
