Replying to Help with choosing an all mountain ski

teabag:
I have the Chronics for park and I want to buy a second pair of skis for everything else. I'm an experienced skier and I live in Ruka, Finland. Ruka is probably comparable to US east coast, sometimes icy, cold, and not that much powder. The most powder we get is like 30cm(12'') or less.

I want a playful and fast ski for groomers, forest runs, powder, and everything else. Line's Sir Francis Bacons are very tempting but I've also been looking at Lib Tech Ufo 105mm, Reckoner 112mm, and Armada ARV 106mm. Sir Francis Bacons seem like the most playful one's and since there's not much deep powder here, they don't even have to be that wide. I also like carving. Any other recommendations are of course welcomed. Thanks =)
