Hello all, I am from new england, and am looking for the ultimate on ski! My specs are 6'2", 185 lbs, and ski mostly trees(@ jay peak) when its available, like to ski pretty straight and fast, hit the park for an occasional lap or two, like to ski switch, not too much rails, some moguls when necessary but not by choice. I was thinking maybe the kung fujas, or the 4frnt turbo. My current ski is a rossi scratch brigade w a 100 mm waist. I feel i could go stiffer and maybe a bit wider, open to all suggestions and reccomendations, thanks! also length suggestions would help, i currently am on a 176.

ive heard good things about the line blends, they are all terrain so pretty much what you're looking for, i also ski the east coast but im going to be doing more rails and park, which is why im getting afterbangs

have you think of rossi's S3 or S7 ? I own S3 and ride Jay now and then, it's sick.

Kung Fujas is probably the ultimate east coast 1 quiver ski. 100mm waist, nice and soft, but stable at speeds, rockered, and still really fun in the park. I think they'd be perfect for Jay. I know someone who demoed them last winter when they got 14" of new snow and he absolutely loved them, he said they were amazing in the powder, and still really fun at speed.

Moment tahoe, my vct's r fun and they r super buttery and not that stable at speed on trail. At ur weight I wouldn't even consider the rossi S7, if u like really stiff skis, u could check out the line mothership, but judging from what u said, I would go with the line prophet 100 in a 180's length, or the moment tahoe in 180's

this. i skiied blends all last season and couldnt have been happier. they were a bit heavy for my liking in the park, but i had them mounted slightly forward and it was perfect.
