Best single-quiver hard charging all-mountain ski?
Post Body

I'm a teenager and want to buy my first pair of big boy skis. 6'1, skinny, and rip everything from glades, icy moguls, steep hardpack groomers, and small cliffs. I currently use Rossignol Exp 84 tis and they absolutely suck off piste in anything more than an inch of powder -- plus they're getting old.

I ski all over VT but since I don't get too many days I try to pick mostly pow days throughout the year. Last year I did about a dozen days and 9 of them had >6" of snow overnight, so as you can tell I cherry pick my days to be the best ones when I can.

My boots are Nordica Cruise 120 (wide foot gang). Here are some skis I'm considering. Thoughts? - Nordica Enforcer 94/100 - Nordica Unleashed 98 - Blizzard Rustler 9/10 - Volkl Mantra M6

I'm paying with my own money. Theoretically can go up to $1k but would rather be in the $500-600 range if possible. I'm looking at Powder7 and they seem to have decent deals on demo skis. Would appreciate advice on that too.

Enforcer 94s are my daily driver. I also have the 100s, but they're not my favorite. Too heavy and too much work in real pow, and not as peppy on groomers.
