maybe a stiffer twin that's a bit on the wider side since he sounds like he's not too much into park. but how does the width affect turning radius? maybe not even a twin at all if he doesn't want one. but he sounded interested so I'd roll with it.

What level of skier?
Does he ski any park?

If no park and just wants a decent all-round lower end advance ski, maybe the Rossi B2s or the Dynastar 4800.

he does all mountain,park occasionally but mostly natural hits, backcountry, etc. just became a ski patroler, he plays around with telis, lived in vail last year as a ski bum, im actually suprised he asked me for some ski advice but he did so hey.
