looking for an all-mountain ski to deal with east coast ice, groomers, and bumps and a week or two in CO.  been thinking about liberty morphics or helix, but not married.  recs on brand, model sizes would be great. i'm 6' 170lbs advanced.  most time on-piste on the east coast and on and off in CO, but i'm not hucking off cliffs.  no real park play.  thanks.

i don't know but I think it's a wiser investment to get something you'd like to ski here and then look into renting skis for the time you're out west. I don't mean like daily rental but from places that rent for more than one day.

Kung Fujas are a really versatile ski, they have regular camber (helpful for carving up that EC ice) along with a slight tip and tail rocker (for that Colorado deep). I would prefer something a little fatter on super deep days but if you are looking for a quiver of 1 they would be a good choice. I have last years in a 179cm and they are a 96mm waist. I am about the same height and weight as you as well.
