Good aggressive skis

I am looking at getting an all mountain ski that has a good powerfull rebound response on hardpack but also floats well in powder. They don't even have to be twins, because I am just looking for something to cruise around in and I def can't land switch in pow. I recently demoed some apache recons and thought they were pretty good, but not responsive enough on the hardpack. I also tried some Volkl 6 stars (yeah, yeah I know you can't wait to say all kinds of shit about it being a yuppie ski) which were pretty good on hardpack but they weighed so damn much that it was hard to keep em floating in deep powder. Any advice would be appreciated. Also, since I will be buying these before next season, I will probably buy an 04-05 model instead of an 05-06 model to save money. Thanks

That wasn't funny.
Mad Trix will eat up pretty much anything
If you want to float better, get the mojos.

Yeah it really wasn't funny at all. I described exactly what I am looking for in the thread. I guess you think it fun to try to act cool with your online personality. Go ahead and make an ass out of yourself. I don't give a shit.

Atomic Stomps sound like a good ski for what you're looking for. I love my Scratch BCs.

next years b4's have like a 93mm waist and they are 195 cm long. how is that too big of a ski? the jp vs juliens are bigger. they are almost as long, and i think they are wider.

The squads (what your calling and used to be the b4) and much much stiffer than the jp juliens. Its not the width that matters and that the squads are alot stiffer and alot harder to manhandle into tighter spaces than im thinking most people on this site could handle.

retyping that so i dont sound like a fucking idiot.

The squads are much much stiffer than the jps and when i said "too much of a ski for most people" im saying that they are gonna be alot tougher to manhandle into tighter spaces than the jps/juliens just becasue of thier stiffness in combination with thier length and width in a ski of their type. And yes the Jp/juliens are just as long as them but they are much easier to flex and im assuming have quite a bit shorter running length.

The squads will be about as aggressive as you can get... but those are 06s. If you're into 06s, get some ANTs. That's about as agressive as it gets. For this year, Moships or Gotamas, or perhaps MT mojos.

volkl explosives might be another ski to look at. Unbelievable in powder, actually just an unbelievable ski all around. Last weekend I was up in fernie and tried using my friend's for a day. Took them through fresh powder, crusted over crap, ice, moguls, basically everything, and I thought they were great all around.
