I know these questions get asked alot, just looking for some input. I'm 5'8 and 120 lbs. I' not a good skiier and ski mostly groomed shit and park. I want something stiff enough to bomb down hills though and carve nice.

You're also pretty light, so unless you're aggressive, you might want to stick with a softer ski.
