Ok so I want a pure all mountain ski, this pair will be nowhere near a park since I have a ski specifically for park. I'M 5 foot 10 170 pounds, skiing east coast so no pow, just to shred the mountain, trees and all.

I was leaning towards the jeronimo, but always nice to hear some input

Also: Wich size? And what binding? I have not been in the ski market for a long time

I have both of those skis, and if you want big mountain performance then you want the Billy Goat.  The Jeronimo is more of a park ski that can also handle all mountain than the other way around.  If you aren't that aggressive of a skier and are looking to just cruise around, the J-mo would be good.  But if you really do want a pow and all mountain performer, the BG is the best choice hands down.
