First off, in my limited time lurking on these forums, I have learned a great deal from you folks. You all are a great source of info and it is much appreciated.
I think I have decided to go with the Fischer RX8 or RX9 but not sure which would be better for me.
I consider myself an upper intermediate skier - meaning I ski pretty much anything but moguls. Unless on the steep blacks, I prefer to go fast with big sweeping turns. On the steep blacks is when I do the short turns at slower speeds. FYI - most of my skiing is in eastern PA (read: hardpack and ice) with the occasional trip to VT and I am 5'8" 165lbs.
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
