I am 5 '11" about 170 I have been skiing the salomon 1080 161 ( I know its way too short for me) I need new skis ASAP and am looking for something similar to the 1080. I prefer twin tips and like to hang out in the park once in while but am generally an all mountain intermediate/expert skier. I ski on the East coast Do you have any recommendations? How is this ski compared to the 1080?

well their was all different 1080's, so i don't know what you rode, but this is a fairly stiff ski that does well on groomers and ice and will ski some pow and trees. it is NOT a twintip, just a slight raised tail. If your coming off the old 1080 i would recomend last years salomon foil in a 174 or the new 1080 model that came out this year , they will have more of that feel your looking for. also look at last years salomon thruster, I know its a park ski , but it is an excellent all mountain ski.
