What would be your absolute dream ski?

If you could have the perfect ski, what would it be?
I'm talking details... Dimensions, both length and widths, tip shape, twin tip (I assume twintip, I can't imagine skiing on anything else). Wide? Skinny? Short? Long? Blunt tip, pointy tip. Soft? Stiff? And graphics, what would you look for in graphics on a ski?
Tell me what YOUR absolute perfect ski would be (serious responses only please)

personally, I like short fat skis, that are nice and soft, but not too soft. And I like very simple graphics, old surfboard style (like kevin's PE's)

i love how mty pollards are just a little stiff so they have lots of energy to them.
and 186 seems perfect

and that was at whistler yes kevin?
for me, i like a longer ski, probably around a 90 or so at the waist. but i do want a fat ski, like over 100mm at the waist, and good length, like 180+. stiffish. not too stiff, not too soft, about the stiffness of ar5s, very good they are
i want lights in my skis, so a glowing ski would be awesome (we've talked about that sean), i think a glowing ski would be prime, a fat glowing pair of skis, like blue LEDs, id like that a lot

yeah i think you messaged me about this one time a long time ago...hmm..about 164-165 in length, around 80 or lower 80's at waist..not really sure about tip and tail...not something as soft as line 1260's, but i would want a good medium so that if i landed backseat i wouldnt wash out too bad...hmm the shape of the tip..the tapered look is okay, but i think a wider blunt look is cool too
yay.snow.yay

Semi-soft at tails and tips, otherwise kinda ridgid. 171's work for me now, but I'd go longer for my next ski cause i want it to be BC. So with that in mind, WIIIIIDEer than your mother.
