Good choices for Skier-X?

Being broke sucks - I probably won't get any days on the snow this year. Hopefully, I'll be able to save up enough money (between paying for school and my car) to pick up some new skis in the spring when the stores and companies start their end of the season sales. Anyway, what would be some good choices for skiercross? I'm thinking possibly Line Assassins, since they seem to have the best design for it.

do you want a twin that can do skier cross, or a skier cross more specific racing style of ski?

Dude I ski in skier cross only team skis. It does make a difference when it comes down to it in the end results. I us the 180cm Salomon mens team skis for long courses and a shorter 175cm team for shorter courses that are tight. If you are really serious get good race skis.

I'd prefer something specifically designed for skiercross that isn't an integrated system.

Atomic sx:b5 or sx:11
sx:11 is pretty sweet ski, it's won alot of skiercross events. x-games. it the only skiercross ski i have skied and it was pretty sweet, it gives you the feeling of alot of power under your feet. the sx:b5 is new this year and has a new construction beta 5 thingy.
those would be my personal top 2 picks, over any of the rossignol or salomon skiercross skis. the atomics just have that stiff powerful energic race feel to them.
