Help picking out a ski.

So I've been skiing for about 1 year, and am buying some new skis soon. My previous ski was the Abang, and I loved it. I'm 5'10ish 180lbs. I ski more all-mtn rather than strictly park.

What would be a good ski for me? I was thinking either Chronic Cryptonites, or Masterminds.

Well, if you liked Abangs at your weight, you would want a softer ski. Try K2 revivals or kung fugas, a line mastermind would also work but i'd look at fugas, they have better dimensions for all mountain skiing
