Foil. It flexes very well and is great all-mountain ski.

Chronics would be nice. They're pretty stiff and they'll ski alot like PE's since your lighter. I have them, and I'm 145 and they're really nice. Stiff, yet not too stiff.

maybe get a new pair of FSs if you like those a lot, or fujis. both are soft skis but will be fine for you cause yo u are light.
