Want some skis that love bowls, busting crud, and the occasional pow float. What are some recommendations?

Rossignol sender free 110, dynastar mfree 108, rossi sf118, nordi enforcer free 110 (discontinued but maybe some floating around used.) Volkl revolt 114, Previous gen black crows Corvus was pretty good. On3p woodsman 110. Most skis in the 2100g+ range are going to be missiles in chop. Blister and newschoolers have som good reviews on some of these.

head kore line got updated and now have metal

Anyone here tried the optic 104?
2000g per ski in 186 or whatever the second largest size is. Weight and not too stiff could be fun.

Tempted to try as they’re half off on the German online stores.

yes, demoed them couple weeks back. very fun ski, feels a little too much like a park ski for being all mountain oriented. it is a true one ski quiver though, it's soft enough to do tight slow speed carves and butter on some knuckles, but stiff enough to feel strong in cruddy terrain. does have a bit of a speed limit though
