Replying to Demo places in Vail with good selection?

FruitBootPro:
I'm heading to Vail around New Year's but all I have are detuned Blends that are a bit short for my height. Want something to help me float a bit better and carve more aggressively as I'm probably not gonna spend that much time in the park. Can any Vail bois tell me the best places to demo some all-mountain twin-tip/freestyle oriented skis? Ideally with a solid selection. I've looked online and a lot of them advertise "ski rentals" which won't have the selection I'm looking for. The one place I've found that does have a good selection of skis listed online only has directional skis.

Skis I'm looking to demo:

K2 Marksman
ON3P Kartel 108
Faction Candide 3.0
Faction Prodigy 3.0
4frnt Devastator
Moment Meridian 107
Armada ARV/ARVti 106
Line Bacon
Maybe some others.

If pow day:
K2 Catamaran, Moment Wildcat, and other 110-120mm skis that are more agile and playful.

All hopefully in the 180-190cm range.

Definitely don't need to demo all of them as I only have a few days to ski.
My dad also desperately needs some wider skis because we will be skiing the back bowls and his skis are SUPER narrow. So it would be good if we could also find a place with some directional mid-fat dad skis.

Any help would be appreciated.
