Poster: A snowHead

My 14yo son has done plenty of skiing since he started at age 7 inc. race training etc, etc. He can genuinely ski anything. He is 5'7", 9 stone-ish and currently on 168cm Volkl Dogens with centrally mounted bindings. The Dogens are essentailly park skis, he loves them, has trashed the topsheets, so I'm happy to hang on to them. However, he's now vearing more towards all mountain and powder skiing. I'm looking for advice on an all mountain twin tip that will throw carved turns on hardpack. I've spent a fair bit on race training and don't want to see those skills fade. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I would definately go for 168cm K2 Extremes (used to be called Public Enemy). I have a 16 year old lad who is now skiing powder/backcountry on these. The Extremes have a fat enough waist to ski through anything + are also twin tip, so are great in the park and in addition are perfect on piste. . The kids also love them - given their K2 street cred.
I confess I also have a pair of them with marker baron touring bindings - and swear by them as the perfect all mountain ski
