Im 6'1 165 pounds advanced skier and looking for a all mountain ski to use in and out of bounds for the steep terrain, and thinking a comparable ski to my Salomon Gun 175's which I love would be the Sick birds or the Volkl Montras around the lenghth of 177 to a 181.I had a pair of K2 Seth Pistols and didnt like them. To heavy and stiff. I mostly ski at Arapahoe Basin and Vail and also like to straight line grooms and carve like a mad man. I also like to pop off of everything. Any suggestions on these skis or any others would be great.I

I personally feel that the K2 obSETHed is a really wicked ski for all these conditions and specs. you are talking about, but it is as you say heavy and pretty stiff. The Volkl ski then is what I would suggest to you. Super ski to rail groomers or straight line, perform great in pow.I'm sorry, I meant this is a soft ski, for floating pow. Still heavy though.
