mothaships, come in 172 182 and 192, all with metal for torsional stiffness which enables high speed stability, the have a large tail height for backwards pow landings as well as butter-ups.
they also are one of the widest twins on the market, allowing for stability as well as mad stomped landings.. check them out.

Atomic Stomps are pretty sweet. I haven't skied anything else this year, but I haven't wanted to! They do the trick! I'm not sure if the binding system would be too heavy for you though...

yeah the stomps looked hella sick, i havent skied them but they looked like a stronger stiffer pocket rocket. I think they got the stupid binding plate though.

i thought the stomps were a park ski?

the ak enemies are pretty sick and if you want something that is a little heavier, go for the machete huckster!

The Stomps are pretty much an all around pretty fat twin...I would say the same about Motherships...I would never trust those in a big mountain scenario.
