look at all of the ski websites and look under the "all mountain" category then you can choose whatever ski fits your needs and you like the most!!

:D

sounds like you're looking for 90-100mm underfoot with a bit of tip and tail rocker

maybe. but OP, where you ski? cause if I were to get an all mountain ski, it sure as shit wouldn't be any wider than 90 and I'd certainly like smaller than that with no rocker. I live in NJ, so ice, fake snow, slush, all things that don't agree with soft, wide, rockered skis. so where you at, give a region.

that's what i'd go with for a park ski that can be ridden all mountain, regardless of region.  any less than 90 and your ski is pretty much park-specific.  i'd prefer a small amount of rocker just to make the ski less hooky and more buttery - not to make your park ski float

check out the silencers from this year, or the sights, both from K2. There's also the domain and revival bu they have jib rocker whereas the other skis have all terrain rocker. there's halos and alphas from armada too. reno rocker from moment.
