As an experiment I got some carbon skis (Fischer Hannibal 106, 186, ~1740 g per ski) with lightweight bindings (Shift) and mounted a 280 g mass on each tip: hockey training pucks, heavier than normal pucks. I've had them out in three heavy Baker powder days so far. They are a total blast. Light underfoot, easy to pivot and bang out turns, yet still very stable through chop, much more so than my Ranger 102FRs. The only weird thing is picking them up in the parking lot. With the center of mass shifted forward, it makes them a little awkward to carry.
If you're up for it, try sandwiching some Sorbothane between the puck and the topsheet. Softer than the puck so ~ 40 OO is probably a good durometer to start.
