Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Looking to invest in an all mountain front ski to act as a one ski quiver for at least the upcoming season. (Will only be skiing two weeks).
I'm 5'11 and 165lbs, spending time mostly on and around groomers but also in trees and through crud.
Considering these and would appreciate advice:
Blizzard
brahma
Volkl
kink
Volkl
kendo
Dynastar
powertrack 89
Nordica
nrgy 90
Armada
invictus 89 ti
Also would appreciate advice re sizing. I'm thinking about 173cm but not possible with all of these skis so may have to go longer/shorter?

Why not just rent for the first week and swap around the skis and see what you like? All god skis you have listed but what I like you may hate and vice versa.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Never been to this resort before so don't know how wide ranging the demo options are in the shops there. May end up doing that but would ideally decide on one before heading out there.

173 sounds rather short - I'm 5'6" and 130lbs and ski Völkl Mantras (usually) in 177cms.
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

At 5'9 200lbs would the 173 brahma be considered to short vs 180?
