Replying to Rocky Mountain West -> East Coast

So I just decided to commit to a college in Boston, MA and am trying to figure out a solid ski to buy and take with me. I'm from Utah and ski Alta. I enjoy the occasional jib or two, but tend to stick to trees and would like to keep the hard-charging style I have. All my coworkers in the ski shop I work at recommend carving skis, but I'm not really one for that type of ski. I've never skied in the East so I really don't know what to expect. If you guys could provide me with some guidance that would excellent!
