I'm 5'6 140 lbs and a level 7-8 skier. I am looking for a pair of all mountain skis to supplement a pair of 160 cm 68mm carvers that are really only good on groomers.
I'm trying to decide between the prophet 90 and 100. I know the 100 is better for pow, but I'll probably be going 50/50 pow on average, and only bring out the carvers for pure groomer days. I'm not sure if I should go with the 90 or 100, and what length. I was thinking 172 or 179 for the 90, or 172 for the 100. Help would be greatly appreciated!

well the local mountains here in so.cal don't really get much powder, and I doubt I would use the Lines for that. Next year I am moving north for school and will mainly be skiing Tahoe or other similar areas. I don't do too much trees yet, and when I turn tight and fast, it is on groomers since my current skis don't even handle pow. I'm starting to lean for the 179s. Thanks for your help.

the ski is an ease choice. i would go with the 100. these are one of the most versatile skis i have ever skied on. as for length i would need to know more of what you are looking for. if you like big lines with long GS turns the 179 is the ski for you. if you like a little quicker ski then look at the 172. this won't give you quite the float, but it will be a killer tree ski and quick turner. so it depends on where you are skiing and what you like to ski. but the 100 is the way to go.
