Sin 7 vs Sick Day 102 vs Supernatural

I apologize in advance if these sort of threads are annoying but I'm really stuck on which ski to get. I've been working massive amounts of overtime so I'm buying them next Friday. So I ski mostly in the Catskills in NY so I ski anything from powda to crust to ice. I ski aggressive and like to ski fast/reckless on groomers. Tight and long turns. The woods whenever possible. A few VT trips mixed in. California trip once a year. A trip to Turin, NY where there's 2 feet of lake effect. I'm average body type/athletic for a 27 year old.

So since last winter, I skied the Sin 7's on a demo day. Loved them. I'm coming from old K2 twin tips. The name escapes me right now but they are about 80mm. I'm ready for big boy skis. I've been determined to get the sin's but I've always admired Line Skis. The Sick Day's and the Natty's seem to have similar dimensions and descriptions to the Sin's. I can't really find any reviews on the Sick Day 102's. Have any of you rode these? I'm just nervous to buy skis that I've never skied.

Thanks for any and all help!!

I have the Supernatural 92’s and they’re the most versatile ski I’ve ever been on. They don’t do anything amazingly but do everything well.

But I did recently demo Blizzard Brahma’s and think you’d like those more for your style. They’re incredibly fast and stable and will cut through anything. I’m actually scared by how fast they are. But they’re also too stiff for bump skiing.

Neither have titanium in them so they are both gonna be a more "playful" ski. Like the guy before me said I'd recommend trying a blizzard brahma or some ski with titanium in it. They ski better on ice, better response, less chattery at high speeds which sounds like something you'll appreciate in NY.
