well personaly I like to have two skis instead of one, just personal preferance mind you,  But yea the 169 seth vicous would work well for you. I have them as my only pair of skis and love them for everything, I am a bit bigger then you though. 165 ARV's sound like they would work well to.  How about Scratch BC's I know alot of people who love thoes every where to.

Fuck no.  They suck all-mountain.  Since you're so light, and you said you like soft skis, take a look at the Teneighty Guns/Pocket Rocket.  Great ski but really soft.

^i'm pretty sure chronic blends would be a bit on the skinny side for utah.

i think the foil would do you really well...since you are not that heavy, these skis will blow you away with it performance. i'm 150lbs, and demoed a pair at 166 in length. the performance i got was phenominal, would have got myself a pair if it wern't so expensive. so i got myself a pair of crichton pro instead...which works better for me since i live in the east coast, i do not really need that much board under my boot.

165 salomon gun, you're not a huge kid at all  so you're gonna want a lighter ski otherwise it won't be a lot of fun in the park and it'll be harder to do stuff until you get older. the guns are a fun all mountain park ski

haha that is the whole idea behind the anthem... soft n flexy for park, yet wide so not only is it good in pow, but its stable everywhere... plus its relativley cheap and i havent broken a pair, and i have been on my pair since like februaryish...

Jea, get SP's, MSP's or ARV.
All those would work good.

One ski quiver is such an illusive beast. The only thing that is a true one-ski quiver in my eyes, for normal sized dudes in Vicious/The Seth.

Seriously, 169 Seth.
