line prophet 100 or volkl mantras 60/40 off/on. 175lbs 511" aggressive advanced intermediate, looking for a 50/50 powder ski to do it all and progress on - line too wide? mantras too stiff? line to slow edge to edge? mantra off piste performance?

The line prophet 100 is very quick for a fat ski, to the point that you would never know it's 100mm under foot when skiing it on groomers. yet it floats well in pow. IMO the mantra is a stiff on-piste ski, that excels in eastcoast hardpack and ice but will work in powder only because of its width not its flex. The prophet is softer, way easier to ski, rips on groomers and blows the mantras away in pow and off-piste, plus it's a tru twintip and the mantra has a slight raised tail at best. It depends on what direction you want to progress in your skiing, if you want to charge on steep groomers and ice and ski some powder and trees now and then, go mantras---but if you want to go more freeride off-piste and charge in powder and big drops landing switch and still be able to cruise groomers with your buds or rip the steeps go prophets. way more versitle of a ski then mantras.thanks dude - made my desission alot easyer - what about the prophet 90 - where do they fit in?
