I'm a fairly aggressive skier and have been on tele's for about 3 years off and on between alpine. 180lbs and 6 ft. Think I can handle these or any other suggestions? Also i'm looking for a fairly soft playful ski. Thanks.

Ron , the skis have not changed from last year you will have lots of Fun with the Hombre. If your Looking to loose some weight choose the Zen Oxide same ski with a different core to make it lighter.

Hey Ron, not sure if they changed the ski from last year, but the 09s were a hell of a lot of fun. They are not "soft and playful" per se, and needed some speed to come to life, but if you are comfortable making fast tele turns, they are a great choice. I'd also check out the Line Prophet 100s.
