Dynafit Zzeus boots
Spring/Distance: 177 Movement Pariah (126-92-113)
Everything else: 186 PM Gear Lhasa Pow (140-112-120) Best ski I've probably ever ridden, it's light, stable and stiff. Destroys everything it's path yet doesn't beat you up after a long day skiing on them. I am a huge fan.

6', 155 lbs, sometimes I have a beer gut.

Last season I added 190 Wailer 112's to my 183 Bro's and 185 Armada ARG's to fill the gap between stiff cambered ski and pow ski. It's since become my ski of choice unless the powder is bottomless or i'm skiing inbounds on icy groomers. I did a traverse of the olympics last spring on the Bro's and was wishing i had the 112's the whole time. After that it also became my ski of choice for volcanoes.

My suggestion would be to drink the kool-aid and get 112's. Buy a used pair of explosiv's for $100 and a used pair of Praxis Pows or DPS 138's. Put cheap alpine bindings on the explosiv, put plates on the 112's and 138's.

This. If you've got the dough, Wailer 99s are a killer volcano/spring ski and a little easier to deal with in skin tracks and icier stuff, though the 112s are better than you'd think in those situations.

Me:
184 99s/sollyfit (long tours, volcanos)
184 112s/sollyfit (powder days inbounds or out)
183 Katana/sth14 (crud, mank, inbounds charging)
178 Megawatt/sollyfit (rock skis)
176 Legend Pro/Axial (high pressure, ice. Too short. Need to sell these)

Having one ski with metal in it is a must for me.
