I got 07 JO PROS. superlight, pretty poppy, and really thin underfoot. Love em, but the edges got destroyed on fs 270 outs. Looking for a ski like this-bout 176 in length, but better durability on rails. i do like 50% big jumps, 20% rails, and 30% all mountain. Suggestions....

I'm looking at next years Alpha 1's. they're supposedly really light, decently poppy, and pretty sick in the deeper snow because of their early rise... as for the edges, the guy i know who skis them doesn't do rails that often, so i don't know how they would hold up.  Seems like a good one-ski quiver to me...
