Chronics are more for bigger jumps so those may or may not appeal to you, still good for what you do

Afterbangs might be what youre looking for, but I personally don't like wood core skis due to waterlogging

TCs also sound pretty good for how you ride, I think they're in between Chronics and Afterbangs performance wise

I have no clue about the Future spins except that they are lighter and have less swing weight for jumps, rails, etc.

I think either the TCs or the Afterbangs would be good for you

sooo you just ride the spaceframe foam core 1080s from circa 2005ish?

Come on dude, almost all park, pow, big mtn skis are all wood cores! Some even have, gasp metal in them!

It sounds like you like to ride like Shane McFalls. He uses the Chronics.
