i was originally pretty set on the line sir francis bacons, but i saw these and thought they might be more of one ski quiver that still rallies powder, any suggestions for which ski i should go with?im about 5'10 and pretty light, but im growing a lot right now, very agressive skier, love powder, and small-medium sized cliffs. but i also want to be able to bomb groomers to the lift.

The Line Sir Francis Bacons are a little softer and more playful than the Volkl Gotamas. The Gotamas are a very stiff ski. You should demo some skis to find out what type of flex you like. If you are light you might find you like a ski with a softer flex.
