This, or Line Blends.

Those two skis are by the the two most versatile skis that can go ANYWHERE. Kung Fujas if you like a rockered ski, Blends if you don't - it's that easy.

get the Armada ARV - early 90's underfoot, pretty soft tip to tail but super solid torsionally, rather light swing weight too.  One of my all time faves.

If I was in your position i'd be looking for something preferably with slight rocker, medium flex, and around 95-100ish mm underfoot. Do some searches on skis such as:
-ON3P Jeronimo
-Rossignol S3
-K2 Obsethed
-K2 Kung Fujas
-Line Prophet 100

I was in a similar position, tried the Fujas and the Blends - both super super sick, handled everything!

The Blends were cheaper - and look soooo good, so I went for those.

On the fujas schizo bindings, although they looked like they'd break if you kept changing them, they were pretty awesome - but just left it in the middle for most of the time. I couldnt afford to get them for the blends, so just mounted +2, probably should have gone slightly further forward as the recommended is seriously far back, but nm.

Blends +1
