Help us help you. What are you looking for. Rails, jumps, groomers. Do you know if you like flexy or stiff?

Alpha 1 is the stiffest and meant more for jumps, so the thall and halo would be a better choice if you like softer skis. Then you need to decide whether you want camber (thall) or rocker (halo) which is just up to your preference.
If you look any skis other than armada, I would recommend the atomic punx. They are very light and buttery, and they sound perfect for you. I love mine. (the 2014 skis will be stiffer)

Punx are great. They are real playful and buttery, great for rails. They will feel really snappy

Between the three, the T-Hall is best for buttering around, with its 3D butter zones, yet a stiffer waist for the jumps. That's probably your best choice.
