First of all do not listen to this comment, look at his karma and his post count it goes to show he knows nothing, the ar7 is not a "fat" ski whatsoever these are the Dimensions:

120-87-110 @ 181cm

119-86-109 @ 176cm

118-85-108 @ 171cm

117-84-107 @ 166cm

116-83-106 @ 161cm

87 underfoot, and thats on the 181s, and 83 underfoot on the 161s, so definatly cant handle powder. And out of the skis up there that you picked, i dont have a favorite, but if you had to pick one of those, id prolly go with the k2 revivals, but if you will consider any other skis id suggest the salomon 2012s.

And btw the salomon suspects wont do you any good in the pow eaither.

Marker griffons are a good choice and they will perform anywhere around the the mountain for the type of skiing you will be doing.

I just meant they are okay in pow, not nearly as good as a pow ski, and i agree with you, the 2012's are a good ski, but i've heard they have durability issues
