I'm looking at the Line Sir Francis Bacon's. I am 6ft, 2in 17yr old. I am a advanced/expert skier and I need a new ski. The only problem is I like park skiing and the area I ski in about half of my skiing per year (about 35 days a year) is in SD. SD is not exactly know for powder skiing. Most of the year it's rather icy or groomed with a few powder stashes on tree runs and some small cliffs. The rest of the year I live a lot in CO and I ski Telluride, Vail, and Beaver Creek so I get my fair share of powder.
My question is, how will they hold up at high speeds on groomers and in the park? (No rails, just jumps like 3's and backflips... I hate the way rails f*** up my skis and I'll just use some cheap Afterbang's or Revival's if I get into rails and whatnot) I'm talking about the 2011's here and in a 183 (I think). Please only speak from experience with these exact skis. If you think something else is a better match please recommend it with REASONS please.
