Hi all. To keep it short, i'm 6'2 and 210lbs, upper advanced, can really ski anything, sometimes hitting hard, sometimes chilling, i generally like short to medium turns. I like my skis fairly stable when going fast but playful and light feeling with some pop and energy. Conditions-wise skiing everything, mostly chopped up and soft snow, a bit of really hard snow and courduroy, a bit of pow and trees.
Right now i have a pair of 160 fischer superrace sc rc4 slalom skis. They're awesome on hardpack and ice but after noon when the snow gets destroyed they are hard to enjoy to their potential and they are wobbly when going straight at big speeds.
I can get a pair of brand new 18/19 head kore 105 w bindings for just 500$, but they're 180cm, so i don't know if they wouldn't be compromising in stability. I saw many reviews saying that they're quite stiff considering their construction and that they perform really well in conditions similar to mine
Also i can get a pair of demo 17/18 salomon qst 99s w bindings in both 181 and 188cm for 400$. Only concern is that i've heard that they wouldn't be as good for someone this heavy. Don't know how true is that and if they would be more stable at 188cm.
My third choice would be a pair of new dynastar legend x96 in 186 for around 540$. Heard good stuff about them, but the price of kores is giving me a hard time.
Considering just these 2 rn because of the deals.
Thanks in advance for all reccomendations and help!
