This is an issue which pops up from time to time. I remember when I switched to shaped skis and I felt very uncomfortable on them. Why? The shaped skis want to turn for you. Honestly, once you understand this and don't try and fight it they are a LOT of fun. The suggestions to work with an instructor will make a huge difference in your enjoyment of shaped skis. You put a lot less effort into skiing shaped skis properly than skiing straight skis (in general).
The shaped skis are plenty stable enough at speed these days. Just give them a chance and you might really enjoy them.
